Bad news again for the shoe industry in Carinthia. The shoe manufacturer Gabor in Spittal/Drau wants to cancel 170 jobs this year.

Already three years ago Gabor reduced its jobs from 950 to 650. The cancellation of 170 further jobs is the next blow for the workers in the shoe industry. Gabor has problems to survive on the market. The prices for shoes are permanently going down.

The Carinthian politicans of all parties promised to make a break from their election campaigns, and search new jobs for the concerned persons.
