"I voted in favour of the application by the Belgian authorities for EGF funds for workers made redundant in Ford Genk and its suppliers/downstream producers of which 4 500 are expected to participate with a contribution of EUR 6 268 564 from the fund. The manufacture of passenger cars in the EU is an industry heavily affected by globalisation - production of passenger cars decreased by 14.6 % in the EU-27 between 2007 and 2012 while China more than doubled its market share. Ford was the largest employer in the province of Limburg and the loss of more than 8 000 jobs including indirect job losses has had a huge impact on the region’s economy mostly affecting people between the ages of 30 and 54 in their prime working life. The use of the fund should help to support these workers with a coordinated package of personalised services including job search assistance, training and re-training and allowances and incentives. While it is important to build upon the skills acquired by the affected workers in these services it is also crucial to improve their employability and anticipate current and future labour market demands to provide real added value."@en1
