Questão jurídica principal
Whether the claimed loss of work for October to December 2011 was temporary and attributable to economic reasons within the meaning of short-time work insurance.
Decisão extraída
The loss of work was no longer temporary; it was mainly due to structural competition and reduced staffing, not decisively to the euro/franc exchange rate.
Fundamentação extraída
After 23 months of short-time benefits, restructuring had been completed and the industry remained under lasting competitive pressure. The claimed downturn was no longer extraordinary and had lost its temporary character.
