Hamburger Containerboard, part of the Prinzhorn Group, has reached an early agreement with employee representatives on a social plan in connection with\u00a0the shutdown of a paper machine at its Pitten mill\u00a0in Austria.<\/p>\n
The company confirmed to EUWID that a mutually satisfactory agreement had been achieved. Management stressed that the decision to cut jobs, affecting a total of 52 employees, had been a very difficult one.<\/p>\n
Prinzhorn Group said it had initiated comprehensive measures to ease the impact on those affected and their families.<\/p>\n
Initial voluntary programmes are already under way to support employees in their transition to new employment. In addition, a labour foundation \u2013 similar to a transfer company \u2013 will be set up on a voluntary basis to provide intensive support for rapid reintegration into the labour market as well as training and retraining opportunities.<\/p>\n
The final social plan was adopted on Thursday 14 August.<\/p>\n
Only at the end of July had the company informed staff at a works meeting about the need to reduce capacity in the field of corrugating medium and case-making papers, a step which also had implications for the workforce.<\/p>\n
