In Grace-Hollogne, the Farnell workers feel betrayed by management. Farnell is a distribution platform for electronic components.
189 jobs are threatened. The announcement came in May. Since then, the business has been slow.
Yet Farnell is not in trouble at all. This American multinational even saw its turnover increase by 20% last year. The announced closure of the Grace-Hollogne site is therefore above all an economic choice.
A meeting took place on Friday between unions and workers. Demotivated workers who are dissatisfied with the financial compensation offered by the multinational. This is the case of Christophe Gufens. He has been a general worker at Farnell for 20 years. “In terms of production, we produce much much less than what we produced before because we are so demotivated” he explains. “We feel betrayed by a management which, supposedly, was happy with us. And now, their way of betraying us is to make us leave with breadcrumbs, to make us leave like a dog. “
