During the March 9–12, 2026 voting block, the European Parliament addressed issues related to industrial restructuring and worker support within the manufacturing sector. The main focus was on the mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund in response to a Belgian application concerning layoffs at Tupperware. This decision reflects the Parliament’s ongoing commitment to providing targeted assistance for workers affected by globalisation and industrial change in specific member states, in this case Belgium. The vote underscores the EU’s approach to cushioning the social impact of economic shifts within its manufacturing industries.
REPORT on the proposal for a decision of the European Parliament and of the Council on the mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund for Displaced Workers following an application from Belgium – EGF/2025/004 BE/Tupperware
This decision authorises financial support from the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) to assist workers in Belgium who lost their jobs following the closure of Tupperware operations. The EGF is designed to help EU member states respond to large-scale redundancies caused by structural changes in global trade patterns. The measure reflects ongoing concerns about the social impact of industrial restructuring in the manufacturing sector and the EU’s role in supporting affected workers.
