Question
Will the Cabinet Secretary provide an update on what support is being provided to workers who were made redundant by Biomet in Bridgend?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Energy and Welsh Language
Welsh Government have provided intensive support to the workforce at Zimmer Biomet over recent months in partnership with Working Wales, Employability Bridgend, Department for Work and Pensions, the Economic Development Unit and Business Wales. We provided redundancy group sessions with staff on the 26th, 29th and 30th of January, also on the 1st of February and the 6th of March. All those facing redundancy have access to the ReAct Plus programme which offers tailored support to help people get back into work.
