Description
Management has announced the suppression of 90 jobs on the 600 at the technical services provider specialised in the development, building and maintenance of ships and platforms.
This means a new loss for the industrial employement in the area of Rotterdam. The crisis in the shipbuilding sector is extending to the depending companies providing technical services. Discussions between trade unions and management will take place in order to set up a social plan but the FNV union hopes that there will be no direct dismissals.
