The MWBU “Nezavisnost” commenced the activities concerning the elaboration of the study on the “Situation and Prospects of Serbian Metal Industry” with the support of Swiss Development Agency: SWISS LABOR ASSISTANCE – SLA.

FUTURE IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY




Belgrade, November 27 2007
The absence of analysis on the situation and prospects of Serbian Metal Industry encouraged the MWBU “Nezavisnost” to deal with these issues and try, on the basis of analytical and expert findings, to give an answer on the future of Serbian Metal Industry. Such a study was already elaborated by MWBU “Nezavisnost” in 2000 and it was entitled “Metal Industry for the New Century”. The author of this study was Srboljub Antic, former minister of energy supply and energy sources in Zoran Djindjic’s Government. The subject matter of this study determined the activities of MWBU “Nezavisnost” to a considerable extent and it was adopted as a document at the IV Congress of MWBU “Nezavisnost”.

Significant changes in Serbian society and economy are evident on the example of metal industry sector going through a painful and long privatization process, bankruptcy of companies and loss of jobs, as a result of previous events. The picture of the present situation, prospects of competitiveness, survival and development in the transition and subsequent period are the issues to be treated by the study. The issues relating to employment, labor and legal protection, as well as social consequences of metal industry sector’s transition are of vital importance for future plans and actions of MWBU “Nezavisnost”.

This study will have a significant impact on ‘’Nezavisnost” Union’s negotiating process with Serbian Government, i.e. sector Departments, as well as with employers’ associations on sector level. Also, our Union will forward the study to Serbian Socio-Economic Council with the request that the problems and prospects of Serbia’s Metal Industry Sector should be discussed and reviewed. The completion of this study has been envisaged for the end of 2007.
