Kargil layoffs: "We fight not to make their job easier"

Kargil layoffs: “We fight not to make their job easier”

“With Cargills, 2020 ends with 2021 layoff plans.” This Wednesday, disgruntled deputy Adrian Quattens (LFI) came to renew his support for the struggle of elected members of the CGT with employees of the starch factory in Howport (North). Cargill, a US company, announced a year ago that it would lay off more than half of the posts on the site, which employs more than 300 people.

About thirty employees have appeared in Lille’s executive court to challenge the regional management of companies for competition and consumption of jobs and employment (directte) to verify their community plan. “For a good number of current programs, the refusal to approve the Job Security Plan (BSE) is a powerful lever to prevent these situations from occurring. However, on the ground, state representation is more in favor of the Kargil administration than the staff; volunteer speeches at the top of the state do not reflect what is happening here.” MP Confirms quateneness.

The BSE, which initially submitted to Kargil Direct, predicts that restructuring of the site will lead to layoffs of 186 employees. Today, the management of Kargil Howport has reversed the path: 90 layoffs are now being considered, taking into account voluntary departure and re-classification procedures. Considering that the law and practice is respected and that the mechanisms provided by Kargil are sufficient to protect the health of employees and to support future layoffs for internal or external redesigns, Directe has given the green light at the community level.

Whatever the company has done, we will stand before you today. We will end up before the Court of Appeal.”
