Textile and clothing sector: production and employment in EU

This procedure examines the impact of global economic shifts and industrial restructuring on the textile, clothing, and leather industries across several EU Member States. It focuses on addressing the socio-economic challenges caused by the decline of these traditional sectors.

The process primarily affects workers facing redundancies and job losses due to company relocations or closures. It explores the use of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) to support displaced employees through retraining and reintegration.
