"Aside from the position that we normally adopt on this issue, this request to mobilise the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) has some specific characteristics that require an additional critical assessment. The request has been made by France in favour of 5 100 workers made redundant by PSA Peugeot Citroën, of which over 41.55 % are older than 55 years, which therefore raises a question (and concern) about the type of support to be provided in practice and about the future that may be hoped for these workers, who traditionally find it harder to get a new job. It should be added that, in the redundancy plan negotiated with workers, Peugeot has included the EGF support as an integral part of the package to compensate those workers made redundant. This is using the Fund in a way for which it was not designed, but to which it clearly lends itself. We maintain our position of solidarity with those workers made redundant as a direct result of the EU’s policies and the structural crisis in capitalism, despite the fact that we can never agree with this Fund being mobilised as a way of ‘negotiating’ redundancy conditions with workers."@en1
