The company Ford has decided to close the plant in Genk in Belgium. By the end of 2014 out of work for more than four thousand employees.
Last year the company was operating a four-day working week. But according to the new plan, management models, which were collected in Belgium, will not be releasing any more. While new car will be assembled in Germany and Spain. Such a trouble-making plant management has come because of the prolonged crisis in the market.
Since 2007, car sales in Western Europe fell by as much as 20 percent. They are now at the lowest level in the last twenty years. Analysts argue that this trend will be repeated next year. Automakers want to enter the markets of America and Asia, but still very slowly moving in this direction.
