"Mr President, what is happening to the former German footwear factory, Rhode, in Santa Maria da Feira, now called Sociedade Luso-Alemã de Calçado, is very worrying.
This company once employed some 3 000 workers but, after the problems in Germany, it shed jobs and currently has roughly 1 000 workers. The majority of them are women, most of whom have had their hours and wages cut. It is now feared that when the elections in Portugal are over, the company may close.
Unemployment in this municipality is continuing to rise and now affects many thousands of workers, particularly in the footwear and cork processing industries. In view of that, we appeal for special emergency intervention measures so as to prevent yet another serious blow to production and jobs in an area that has been so badly blighted by unemployment."@en1
