Summary

Key Points:

On Monday, the Committee on Budgets approved Germany’s request for support from the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund for Displaced Workers (EGF).
Following years of financial losses, a number of restructuring and downsizing measures and a dedicated recovery plan were launched in 2018.
The total cost of the proposed measures is €4.97 million, with the EGF covering 60% (€2.98 million) and the remaining funds provided by German national sources.
Tailor-made support for dismissed workers
The support includes guidance, including counselling and vocational orientation, job search assistance like job scouting and participation in job fairs, as well as training offers.
