This is the case and the discussions took place in a more serene manner, despite the reaffirmed intention by the Kuehne + Nagel group to close the site where they work within a year. 549 workers. The unions have accepted the use of temporary workers and intend to move forward, at the next meeting, on the issue of voluntary departures. “We are continuing to explore various avenues in order to find solutions to save jobs at Logistics Nivelles”, specify the unions. The use of temporary workers should promote the preservation of activity on the site while allowing staff to take their leave and deal with variations in workload. “The objective is for the work to continue as long as possible, for those who wish, on the Nivelles site”, confirms the permanent CNE Didier Lebbe. Who says he is surprised to have learned that the intention of the management was not to make Logistics Nivelles disappear, but to use this name again in the context of the operation of new warehouses in Kampenhout.
