EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL 1. The rules applicable to
financial contributions from the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF)
are laid down in Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013 of the European Parliament
and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the European Globalisation
Adjustment Fund (2014-2020) and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1927/2006[1] (the 'EGF Regulation'). 2. On 20 February 2014, the Dutch
authorities submitted application EGF/2014/002 NL/Gelderland-Overijssel
construction for a financial contribution from the EGF, following redundancies in
89 enterprises operating in the NACE Rev.2 division 41 ('Construction of
buildings')[2] in the contiguous NUTS level 2 regions of Gelderland and Overijssel
in the Netherlands. 3. After an examination of
this application, the Commission has concluded, in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the EGF Regulation, that the conditions for awarding a financial
contribution from the EGF are met.

The Dutch authorities submitted
application EGF/2014/002 NL/Gelderland-Overijssel construction within 12 weeks
of the date on which the intervention criteria set out in paragraph 5 and 6 were
met, on 20 February 2014. The Commission acknowledged receipt of the
application within two weeks of the date of submission of the application, on 5
March 2014. The Commission requested additional information from the Dutch authorities
on 6 March 2014. The Dutch authorities provided such additional information
within six weeks of the date of the request. The deadline of 12 weeks of the
receipt of the complete application within which the Commission should finalise
its assessment of the application's compliance with the conditions for
providing a financial contribution expires on10 July 2014. Eligibility of the application Intervention criteria 5. The Dutch authorities submitted
the application under the intervention criterion of Article 4(1)(b) of the
EGF Regulation, which requires at least 500 redundancies over a reference
period of nine months in enterprises operating in the same economic sector
defined at NACE Rev.2 division level and located in one region or two
contiguous regions defined at NUTS level 2[3]. 6. The application relates
to: –
562 workers made redundant[4]
in enterprises[5] operating in the NACE Rev.2 Division 41 (Construction
of buildings) in the contiguous regions of Gelderland (NL 22) and Overijssel (NL 21). –
The reference period of nine months runs from 1
March 2013 to 1 December 2013. Calculation of redundancies and of
cessation of activity 7. The redundancies have been
calculated as follows: –
215 from the date of the employer's individual
notice to lay off or to terminate the contract of employment of the worker; –
347 from the date of the de facto termination of
the contract of employment or its expiry. Eligible beneficiaries 8. The total number of
eligible beneficiaries is 562. Link between the redundancies and the
global financial and economic crisis addressed in Regulation (EC) No 546/2009 9. To establish the link
between the redundancies and the global financial and economic crisis addressed
in Regulation (EC) No 546/2009, the Dutch authorities argue that
there are several reasons for the negative trends in production and employment
in the construction sector and especially the construction of buildings
(utility buildings and houses) - all relating to the financial and economic
crisis: the policy of banks to implement more stringent rules for the provision
of mortgages and credits - which reduced the provision of mortgages and credits
considerably; the austerity measures of the government to reduce national debt and
budget deficit – thus reducing public spending; and the sharp decline of prices
and values on the housing market, which makes it difficult to sell and buy
houses. 10. The Dutch authorities argue
that the Dutch financial sector is an international global sector, depending
heavily for the investments, provision of credits and mortgages on the
international capital markets. Dutch banks have limited possibilities to
attract savings capital from the Dutch market and consequently they cannot
finance Dutch mortgages by Dutch capital alone. Dutch banks therefore are
dependent on the global capital markets. The financial sector is bound by
international rules on cost reductions, capital investments, re-pricing of
credit provision, balance reductions and financial reserves. The graph on the
mortgages market for the 2008-2012 period shows a substantial slow-down in net
annual growth from 7,2% in 2008 to 1,9% in 2012. Graph 1: net annual
growth of mortgages by banks * Figures of the
Dutch National Bank[6] 11. The
figures for credit provisions for SMEs show a downward trend since 2008. Figure1: provision
of credits on SME’s (source Dutch national Bank)[7] About 98% of the Dutch construction companies
are small and medium sized and these companies also suffer from lack of credits,
which results in many bankruptcies leading to redundancies. 12. The
economic and financial crisis forced the Dutch government to reduce the budget deficit and national debt by launching an
intensive programme to that end. The budget expenditures are to be reduced by
EUR24 billion in 2015. This would have negative consequences for the
construction sector as the reduction of public expenditure has a direct
negative impact on investments in infrastructure and housing programmes. The reduction
of public expenditure by the national government also influences the provincial
governments - the province of Gelderland has started reducing expenditure by EUR
58 million per year from 2011. The province of Overijssel will reduce its
public spending in 2014 by EUR 17,4 million[8].
The construction sector is highly dependent on the regional domestic market.
The negative economic trend caused by the economic and financial crisis and as
a consequence the reduction of the public budget programmes leaves the
construction sector in a vulnerable position, a position even more vulnerable
when operating on the regional market of Gelderland and Overijssel. 13. Over
the period 2008-2013 total production of new houses declined by 61 014 units in
the Netherlands. For Overijssel
production of new houses fell by 2625 and in Gelderland by 7941. The decline of
prices and production of new houses was devastating for the employment in the
construction sector. As a result - many companies went bankrupt and many construction
workers lost their jobs. Table 1: Permits for building
of new houses[9] || Regions || 2008 || 2009 || 2010 || 2011 || 2012 || 2013 Netherlands || Total No of permits || 87198 || 72646 || 61028 || 55804 || 37370 || 26184 Overijssel || Total No of permits || 4937 || 4048 || 4504 || 3332 || 2711 || 2312 Gelderland || Total No of permits || 12199 || 9417 || 8342 || 8656 || 5753 || 4258 Events giving rise to the redundancies
and cessation of activity 14. In
the Netherlands the construction sector suffers from the financial and economic
crisis from 2008 onwards with production constantly declining (with a small
recovery only in 2011). In 2012 production fell by 10,2% for the construction
of buildings (NACE Rev.2 division 41)[10]
compared with 2011. In 2013 this negative trend continued as production fell by
another 10% in March[11]. Table: Annual turnover

In
the first two quarters of 2013, 28 000 jobs were lost[12]in the construction sector in the Netherlands. The figure below
shows that the job losses in the construction sector were by far the highest on
a yearly basis. 16. The
negative trend in production and employment in the Netherlands was particularly
felt in the provinces of Gelderland and Overijssel where there are a
considerable number of construction companies. In 2012 in Gelderland approximately
15 500 such companies were active and in Overijssel around 7500[13]. The following table shows the production
figures of the construction sector in both provinces for the period 2008-2013[14]. Year || 2008 || 2009 || 2010 || 2011 || 2012 || 2013 || 2014* Gelderland || 7835 || 7480 || 6615 || 7296 || 6921 || 6330 || 6155 Overijssel || 4169 || 3745 || 3795 || 3877 || 3519 || 3390 || 3395 # in million EUR * Estimates Expected impact of the redundancies
as regards the local, regional or national economy and employment 17. About 60 000 people are employed in the construction sector in Gelderland, which represents 6,3% of the total working population[15]. In Overijssel 39 500 people are employed in the construction
sector which is about 7,3% of the working population[16]. The contribution of construction to the GDP of Gelderland was 12% in
2011 and10% nationally. For Overijssel contribution to GDP was 8,4%[17]. Table: Regional
GDP figures for the construction sector Subject || Branches || Regions || Period || Value in MEUR GDP || All economic activities || Netherlands || 2011 || 536618 GDP || All economic activities || Overijssel || 2011 || 31984 GDP || All economic activities || Gelderland || 2011 || 54186 GDP || Construction || Netherlands || 2011 || 28986 GDP || Construction || Overijssel || 2011 || 2449 GDP || Construction || Gelderland || 2011 || 3559 These figures on employment and GDP illustrate
that construction plays an important role in the provincial economy and labour
market. It is, therefore, that the redundancies in the sector are expected to
have a substantial negative impact as regards the local and regional economy
and levels of employment respectively. 18. In
Overijssel and Gelderland a substantial rise of redundancies in the
construction sector are noted and compared with the national figures the number
of unemployed in both provinces constitute 39% of the total number of
redundancies in 2012. The table shows the rise of the number of unemployed over
three years per month[18]. Table: Number of
redundancies in the construction sector || J || F || M || A || M || J || J || A || S || O || N || D 2011 || 5.572 || 4.998 || 4.461 || 4.072 || 3.932 || 4.479 || 4.496 || 4.189 || 4.162 || 4.287 || 4.526 || 5.574 2012 || 5.961 || 6.184 || 5.825 || 5.614 || 5.580 || 5.643 || 6.270 || 6.486 || 6.474 || 6.712 || 7.404 || 9.060 2013 || 10.136 || 10.518 || 10.416 || 9.945 || 9.592 || 9.410 || 10.285 || 10.197 || 10.200 || 9.550 || 10.165 || 11.681 The figures show how dramatic the situation in
both provinces in the construction sector is. Unemployment in the sector rises
fast with a strong peak from December 2012 to March 2013 and no further change
thereafter. Targeted beneficiaries and proposed
actions Targeted beneficiaries 19. The estimated number of eligible
beneficiaries expected to participate in the measures is 475. 20. The breakdown of expected participants by sex, nationality and age
group is as follows: Category || Number of targeted beneficiaries Sex: || Men: || 440 || (92,6%) || Women: || 35 || (7,4%) Nationality: || EU nationals: || 475 || (100%) || non-EU nationals: || 0 || (0%) Age group: || 15-24 years old: || 15 || (3,1%) || 25-29 years old: || 46 || (9,7%) || 30-54 years old: || 310 || (65,3%) || 55-64 years old: || 104 || (21,9%) || over 64 years old: || 0 || (0%) Proposed actions 21. The
personalised services which are to be provided to the workers made redundant consist of the following actions which combine to form a co-ordinated package of personalised
services aimed at re-integrating the redundant workers into employment: (1)
Job search assistance and intakes (a)
starting with an intensive intake of all
participants, checking their competences, skills
and ambitions and determining future options (b)
job search assistance – a tailor made program
offered to all individual participants: an active front office support
comprising putting together documents for job search and transfer, intensive
job training, career events, initiating a Service Point for the construction industry
and intensive contacting of employers (2)
Training and retraining measures Training and re-training
facilities and additional measures for the construction sector and for new
occupational profiles. These measures are an important element of the project in order to
achieve more labour market opportunities for the redundant workers. A
differentiation is made between the training in or outside the construction
sector. Inside the sector (building on results from a previous EGF project) the
Dutch authorities intend to turn the redundant workers into ''more all-round
professionals'' which is considered to add substantially to the labour market
opportunities of the persons concerned. Training outside the construction sector has to take into account the
possibilities and occupational experiences of the candidates. Opportunities
exist in the transport sector but also sectors related to construction such as construction
transport, installation work and demolition of asbestos. Only in exceptional cases will the redundant
workers be offered training in sectors completely different from the
construction or related sectors. However building on the positive experience
from a previous EGF case where some persons were retrained in the health care
sector and found a job there, this option will also be kept open during the
implementation. Examples of training/retraining are: (a)
The retraining of a construction worker
(carpenter) into a more all-round craftsman by adding bricklayer skills or
plumbing skills (b)
Retraining a construction worker to work in the
transport sector (c)
Training a construction worker in a new sector
such as health care worker for ambulance transport or working in
gardening/agricultural professions (3)
Outplacement assistance Outplacement is used to provide the
participants with the possibility to work in sectors other than the
construction sector where they were working before becoming unemployed. To
decide if the person is capable, instruments such as job orientation and job
counselling will be used to decide whether a person is really capable of making
a career switch and which educational programme should be followed. The result
of job orientation can be a training programme for the candidate most probably
outside the construction sector. Within the implementation the Dutch authorities
will also use outplacement instruments to prepare candidates for the labour
market in general. Many participants in the project have a long working
experience in the construction sector and are not used to apply in for jobs or
working with CVs or using social media for job applications. The project will
provide assistance with regard to these instruments. (4)
Mobility pool This consists of creating a flexible pool for
both job seekers and employers with (temporary) jobs. This service can be used
to organize flexible deployment. Retrained workers will in this way gain the
necessary work experience and can present themselves to new employers. The
budgeted costs are for setting up this Mobility pool and approaching companies
that want to participate. The budgeted costs include labour costs, rental costs
and other necessary facilities (website, PR, job newspaper etc.). So the Mobility
pool will look for (temporary) jobs for the participants in the project. When a
person is trained he or she will probably be placed in the mobility pool in
order to find a job. Sometimes a candidate can be immediately placed in a job
when the training is finished, for instance as a result of a traineeship or as a
result of gaining working experience in a company within the framework of the
training. Candidates can also be placed in the Mobility pool immediately after
the intake. The Dutch authorities estimate that about 225 participants in the
project will be placed in the Mobility pool and find work through this
instrument. 22. The
proposed actions, described above, constitute active labour market measures within
the eligible actions set out in Article 7 of the EGF Regulation. These
actions do not substitute for passive social protection measures. 23. The Dutch authorities have
provided the required information on actions that are mandatory for the
enterprises concerned by virtue of national law or pursuant to collective
agreements. They have confirmed that a financial contribution from the EGF will
not replace any such actions. Estimated budget 24. The estimated total costs are
EUR 2 709 635, comprising expenditure for personalised services
of EUR 2 601 250and expenditure for preparatory, management,
information and publicity, control and reporting activities of EUR 108 385. 25. The
total financial contribution requested from the EGF is EUR 1 625 781
(60% of total costs).

identified as actions under Article 7(1)(b) of the EGF Regulation are 0
EUR and therefore do not exceed 35% of the total costs for the coordinated
package of personalised services. Period of eligibility of expenditure 27. The Dutch authorities started
providing the personalised services to targeted beneficiaries on 1 February
2014. The expenditure on the actions referred in point 25, sub-total (a) will
therefore be eligible for a financial contribution from the EGF from 1 February
2014 to 20 February 2016. 28. The Dutch authorities started
incurring the administrative expenditure to implement the EGF on 1 February
2014.The expenditure for preparatory, management, information and publicity,
control and reporting activities shall therefore be eligible for a financial
contribution from the EGF from 1 February 2014 to 20 August 2016. Complementarity with actions funded by
national or Union funds 29. The Dutch authorities have
indicated that the measures described above receiving a financial contribution
from the EGF will not also receive financial contribution from other Union
financial instruments. 30. The sources of national
pre-financing or co-funding are the subsidy of EUR 250 000 that the province of
Overijssel has granted for supporting the EGF reintegration activities for
former employees as well as funds provided by the social partners (O&O
fondsen) which will add for the rest of the co-funding needed (i.e. EUR 833
854). Procedures for consulting the targeted
beneficiaries or their representatives or the social partners as well as local
and regional authorities 31. The Dutch authorities have
indicated that the coordinated package of personalised services has been drawn
up in consultation with trade unions and employers' organisations. The social
partners in the construction sector in the Netherlands are participating in the
management of educational institutions. Educational professionals from these
institutions are managing the training and educational facilities in the
sector. The Technical Bureau of the Construction Sector which has initiated the
application is also governed by the social partners. On 3 December, 5 December
and 16 December 2013in the province of Overijssel and on 20 December 2013 in
the province of Gelderland a series of regional meetings with sector
representatives and construction companies were organised. The parties
concerned together with the Employee Insurance Agency (UWV) assessed the nature
and magnitude of the problem and designed actions to help the redundant workers
get back into employment, not least by applying for support from the EGF. Management and control systems 32. The application contains a
detailed description of the management and control system which specifies the
responsibilities of the bodies involved. The Netherlandshas notified the
Commission that the financial contribution will be managed and controlled by
the same bodies that manage and control the ESF. Commitments provided by the Member State concerned 33. The Dutch authorities have provided
all necessary assurances regarding the following: –
the principles of equality of treatment and
non-discrimination will be respected in the access to the proposed actions and
their implementation; –
the requirements laid down in national and EU
legislation concerning collective redundancies have been complied with; –
where the dismissing enterprises have continued
their activities after the lay-offs, they have complied with their legal
obligations governing the redundancies and have provided for their workers
accordingly; –
the proposed actions will provide support for
individual workers and will not be used for restructuring companies or sectors; –
the proposed actions will not receive financial
support from other Union funds or financial instruments and any double
financing will be prevented; –
the proposed actions will be complementary with
actions funded by the Structural Funds; –
the financial contribution from the EGF will comply
with the procedural and material Union rules on State aid. BUDGETARY IMPLICATION Budgetary proposal 34. The EGF must not exceed a
maximum annual amount of EUR 150 million (2011 prices), as laid down in
Article 12 of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013 of
2 December 2013 laying down the multiannual financial framework for the
years 2014-2020[19]. 35. Having examined the
application in respect of the conditions set out in Article 13(1) of the
EGF Regulation, and having taken into account the number of targeted beneficiaries,
the proposed actions and the estimated costs, the Commission proposes to
mobilise the EGF for the amount of EUR 1 625 781, representing 60% of the total costs of the proposed actions, in
order to provide a financial contribution for the application. 36. The proposed decision to
mobilise the EGF will be taken jointly by the European Parliament and the
Council, as laid down in point 13 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of
2 December 2013 between the European Parliament, the Council and the
Commission on budgetary discipline, on cooperation in budgetary matters and on
sound financial management[20]. Related acts 37. At the same time as it
presents this proposal for a decision to mobilise the EGF, the Commission will present
to the European Parliament and to the Council a proposal for a transfer to the
relevant budgetary line for the amount of EUR 1 625 781. 38. At the same time as it
adopts this proposal for a decision to mobilise the EGF, the Commission will
adopt a decision on a financial contribution, by means of an implementing act,
which will enter into force on the date at which the European Parliament and
the Council adopt the proposed decision to mobilise the EGF. Proposal for a DECISION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
