The recent announcement of the acceleration of the closure of Audi Brussels is causing great concern among the workers of Audi Brussels and the subcontractors concerned, as well as their families. As representatives of business and industry, Agoria, Voka and BECI would like to reaffirm their commitment, alongside Actiris, Forem and the VDAB, to making their networks and expertise available to provide a concrete, rapid and effective response to the challenges and needs of the thousands of workers affected.
Given the scale of the economic impact of the closure, they are also repeating their call for economic activity to be preserved at the Audi Brussels site. ‘The continuity of industrial activity or another major project on this site would not only be a guarantee of employment for the region, but also a positive signal for the economic future of Brussels and the country on the international level’, Agoria, Voka and BECI say.
