The moderator of the event welcomed all the attendees by making a brief presentation of the Rules of Procedure of the BS in the Textile sector. After that, a free discussion started on issues of BS members.
The focus of the free discussion was on the opening of new jobs in the textile sector on the territory of the municipality. |The textile industry has strong positions on the territory of the municipality. The sewing enterprises employ a large part of the inhabitants of the municipality. Unfortunately, however, a large number of young people leave their hometowns to seek a living in larger settlements, as well as because of the more attractive pay, better health facilities, social life, etc.
Council members are of the opinion that young people could stay in their hometowns if they had a stable and well-paid job. Thus, at least a small part of the serious demographic problem in our country will gradually find its solution.
The processes described above depend entirely on the private interests of the large employers in the area, therefore the members of the council came up with a proposal, through the mediation of the local authorities, to organize open days in which the employers could present information about the development opportunities that the textile industry provides .
