Van Hool’s trailer division is set to start operating in phases on Monday, with the first group of employees returning to work. Although no specific number of employment opportunities has been mentioned at Schmitz, the company had previously expressed its intention to hire 350 individuals.
As part of their ongoing collaboration with Dutch company VDL, both companies are focusing more on bus activities than trailer production. This strategic decision suggests a clear direction for both companies as they move forward with their respective business plans. The restart of operations marks a positive development not only for the employees but also for the industry as a whole.
