The EGF contributes to the creation of a more dynamic and competitive European economy by improving the skills and employability of displaced people, to help them find better work. The EGF helps low-skilled and disadvantaged jobseekers deal with new challenges on the labour market.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ecl-paragraph\">As a general rule, the EGF can be activated when a single company (including its suppliers and downstream producers) lays off over 200 workers, by SMEs in various sectors in the same region or in a particular sector in one or more neighbouring regions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ecl-paragraph\">The EGF has an annual budget of \u20ac210 million for 2021-2027. It can fund from 60% to 85% of the cost of projects designed to help workers made redundant find another job or set up their own businesses. National or regional authorities implement and manage EGF cases. Each project runs for two years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Procedure<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ecl-paragraph\">The EGF adds to existing job market assistance services by providing personalised measures for the unemployed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ecl-paragraph\">The EGF can co-finance measures such as<\/p>\n<ul class=\"ecl-list\">\n<li>help with looking for a job<\/li>\n<li>career advice<\/li>\n<li>education, training and re-training<\/li>\n<li>mentoring and coaching<\/li>\n<li>entrepreneurship and business creation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"ecl-paragraph\">It can also provide training or subsistence allowances or similar support, including allowances for carers, mobility and relocation allowances, and employers\u2019 recruitment incentives.
