"Globalisation and, more recently, the economic crisis have had an unprecedented impact on companies of every size and, by extension, on their workers. Adapting to change to maintain a competitive pace in the European economic environment is the main challenge currently facing European companies. Objectives such as employability and equipping with skills and expertise aimed at supporting those made redundant following company relocations or changes in the structure of the global economy must be a priority at the moment and in the future programming period.
In order to keep pace with globalisation, companies have been obliged to set up in regions that are attractive for the labour market. However, the advantage that these regions enjoy lasts for a limited period. Their development entails making them less attractive, which then means future relocations. While there are currently regions which fully benefit from investors, according to the forecasts, once the basic infrastructure has been developed, these investors will continue their move east towards more attractive third countries.
I support extending the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) and the increase in the level of cofinancing up to 2013 and even in the future programming period. We must support the implementation of the structural reforms in order to increase employability, while the EGF must be a key instrument for achieving the set objectives."@en1
