"Regulation (EC) No 1927/2006 of Parliament and the Council of 20 December 2006 established the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) with the aim of supporting workers who lose their jobs due to structural changes in the context of the global economy. Rohde – Sociedade Industrial de Calçado Luso-Alemã, Lda – is a footwear manufacturing company which decided to cease trading, resulting in 974 workers being made redundant. On 26 November 2010, Portugal submitted an application for the mobilisation of the EGF in order to obtain funding to execute a training programme aimed at 680 workers made redundant from the company, based in Santa Maria da Feira. I am voting for this report as I believe that the funds granted to Portugal, to a total of EUR 1.4 million, or 65% of the total budgeted value, will make a key contribution to the professional reintegration of the workers. The intention is for them to participate in vocational training and recognition of competences, and that they will have access to grants for entrepreneurial support. It is worth pointing out that the EGF should not be a substitute for the legal and financial responsibilities of Rohde, but rather an additional support granted by the EU in order to alleviate the social difficulties of the Portuguese workers."@en1
