He also believes that, while some of the, what could be The Factory , are not considered to be significant, the majority of it is, but his boss is reluctant to scale back the 30-employee strong workforce.
This is despite the fact that the government has agreed to pay 80% of the payrolled employees, up to € 2,500 per month, if you are furloughed.
"people are worried, but the managers say they follow government guidelines, that the manufacturing can remain open. I think they are worried they will lose business and other factories will remain open.
