The federal government wants to make every effort to guide the affected employees of interior chain Casa to a new job. That is what Minister of Work David Clarinval says. The MR minister will invite the trade unions to his cabinet to view the outplacement options, he says.
Clarinval speaks of a “heavy blow to the employees and their families involved”. Together with the regions and the social partners, the federal government will “make every effort to guide the affected workmers,” he says. For example, there are retraining programs and support in their search for a job, the minister promises. He will soon invite the trade unions to his cabinet to view the outplacement options.
According to Clarinval, the Failissement of CASA emphasizes the challenges with which the distribution center is struggling, such as changing consumer habits and the competition of web stores. “It is essential to strengthen our support for Belgian companies, so that they can adapt to these changes and can remain competitive,” he says.
