Following the announcement of a social plan laying off 90 employees, the third meeting between the Stëftung Hëllef Doheem and unions took place on Monday 8 June 2015.
According to the LCGB trade union, the organisation's management continues to maintain its projected collective redundancies and does not want to discuss the implementation of measures to maintain employment. In the words of management, it seems that alternatives to redundancy exist, but not for all 90 employees.
The position of the LCGB remains unchanged and accepts no layoffs and strictly opposes the proposed social plan.
The LCGB has stated that it will never sign a social plan in Hëllef Doheem and has called for the immediate halt of collective redundancy project by management. It has asked the Director General to commit to developing a retention plan addressing various measures (internal mobility, early retirement, temporary loan of labour to other industry providers, etc.) to avoid redundancies and guarantee employment.
To resolve the situation, to find solutions to save jobs and smooth to give sufficient time to negotiate these job retention measures, the LCGB has proposed a meeting with the social partners and the Minister Social Security.
