Today, the European Commission proposes to support 1,580 former workers of Air France, who have
lost their jobs due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with €17.7 million from the European Globalisation
Adjustment Fund for Displaced Workers (EGF). The funding will help these people find new jobs through
tailored guidance and advice, develop new skills, and start their own business.
The support to the dismissed workers includes advisory services, career guidance, job search
assistance and the possibility to learn new skills through tailored vocational training. Participants can
also receive advice on how to start their own business and a start-up grant of up to €15,000. The support
measures also include hiring benefits, salary top-ups and quick reemployment allowances for workers.
