(AIW). The works councils of affected companies are also involved.

The Bocholt job fair will take place on Friday, 11 October 2024, from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. in the assembly hall of the Flender company, Alfred-Flender-Straße 77 in Bocholt. The aim is to open up new career opportunities at an early stage for skilled workers at risk of unemployment from various sectors - including commercial and administrative professions, mechanical and industrial engineering, design, mechatronics and automation, IT, warehouse management, energy technology, product development, technical drawing and many more.
