               ASSESSMENT OF THE APPLICATION
            
            
               Procedure
            
            
               4.On 12 November 2020, Estonia submitted application EGF/2020/002 EE/Estonia Tourism, i.e. within 12 weeks of the date on which the intervention criteria set out in Article 4 of the EGF Regulation were met. The Commission acknowledged receipt of the application on the same date, and requested additional information from Estonia on 25 November 2020. Estonia provided additional information within six weeks of the request. In accordance with the Regulation, the Commission should finalise its assessment of the application's compliance with the conditions for providing a financial contribution by 31 March 2021.
            
            
               Eligibility of the application
            
            
               Enterprises and beneficiaries concerned
            
            
               5.The application relates to 1 715 self-employed persons whose activity has ceased and 8 365 workers made redundant in the tourism industry in Estonia, out of which 3 873 in the course of collective redundancies notified to the authorities. The collective redundancies concern 68 enterprises in total, affecting between 5 and 1440 workers per enterprise concerned. A list of these enterprises can be found in the annex
                  10
               .
            
            
               Intervention criteria
            
            
               6.Estonia submitted the application under the intervention criteria of Article 4(2) derogating from the criteria of Article 4(1) (b) of the EGF Regulation, which requires at least 500 workers being made redundant over a reference period of nine months in enterprises operating in the same economic sector defined at NACE Revision 2 Division and located in one region or two contiguous regions defined at NUTS 2 level in a Member State. As the redundancies did not take place in the same economic sector (see paragraph 2), the derogation from Article 4(1)(b) provided for in Article 4(2) is applied (see point 26-29 for more details on the exceptional circumstances concerning the admissibility of the application).
            
            
               7.The reference period for the application runs from 13 March 2020 to 11 November 2020.
            
            
               Calculation of redundancies and of cessation of activity
            
            
               8.The redundancies during the reference period have been calculated as follows:
            
            
               –3 873 from the date on which the employer, in accordance with Article 3(1) of Council Directive 98/59/EC
                  11
               , notified the competent public authority in writing of the projected collective redundancies. Estonia confirmed, prior to the date of the completion of the assessment by the Commission, that these 3 873 redundancies have actually taken place,
            
         
         
            
               –4 492 from the date of the de facto termination of the contract of employment or its expiry,

               Link between the redundancies and a global financial and economic crisis
            
            
               10.On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organisation declared the outbreak of Covid-19 to be a pandemic. On 27 May 2020, in its communication The EU budget powering the recovery plan for Europe 
                  12
               , the European Commission declared that the health crisis resulted in an economic crisis, and set out a recovery plan for the economy. As part of this plan, the European Commission underlined the role of the EGF as an emergency tool to assist persons who lost their jobs due to the global economic crisis.
            
            
               11.The Covid-19 pandemic and the following global economic crisis caused an immense shock to the Estonian economy, leading to an expected GDP decrease of 4,6 % in 2020
                  13
               . The crisis hit the tourism industry especially hard, with sudden restrictions of movement taking place internationally. This caused a sharp and unforeseen decrease in international travel and tourism.
            
            
               12.Before the crisis, 90 % of the tourism expenditure in Estonia was generated by international tourism, while the average for OECD countries was around 25 %
                  14
               . The Estonian tourism industry experienced near to total cessation of activity during 2020, which led to a wave of redundancies in the Estonian tourism industry
                  15
               .
            
            
               13.The tourism industry in a broader sense as defined under point 2 has been subject of seven applications
                  16
                for support since the EGF was set-up.
            
            
               Events giving rise to the redundancies and cessation of activity
            
            
               14.The events giving rise to these redundancies and cessations of activity occurred unexpectedly in early 2020 due to the global spread of the Covid-19 pandemic.
            
            
               15.Before the spread of the pandemic, the Estonian tourism industry enjoyed record-high numbers of visitors. In 2019, accommodation services hosted 5,3 % more international tourists and 5,9 % more domestic tourists than the year before. The share of international tourists was prevalent, accumulating to almost 60 % of all stays. In addition, passenger traffic was busy in maritime and air transport. In 2019, 10.64 million passengers travelled through the Port of Tallinn and 3.27 million passengers travelled through the Tallinn Airport
                  17
               .
            
            
               16.Estonia reports the value added in the tourism industry increased by 6,6 %, contributing to 25 % of the value added of the total economy. In 2019, Estonian tourism earnings reached a new record of EUR 2.1 billion, with EUR 1.6. billion generated by international tourists. Tourism was considered a significant sector for the Estonian competitiveness, and substantial investments were made to develop it further
                  18
               .
            
            
               17.In March 2020, events took an unexpected turn with the global spread of the Covid-19 pandemic. On 13 March 2020, Estonia declared a state of emergency due to the spread of the virus. Restrictions of travel were introduced and international borders were closed, which led to a sudden standstill in the tourism industry. In March 2020, the number of international tourists staying in accommodation establishments was 64 % lower than at the same time the previous year. In April-May, the decline was 97-99 % compared to the previous year. Not much improvement was seen in June and July, even with the restrictions temporarily easing over the summer
                  19
               . In the second quarter of 2020, only 120 000 foreign visitors visited Estonia, which was 94 % less than the year before
                  20
               . In the third and fourth quarter of 2020, the decline was 67 % and 89 % in comparison with 2019 figures.
            
            
               18.The restrictions of movement affected the transport sector, where passenger routes were either shut down or operated in a limited capacity. In maritime transport, the number of passengers travelling through the Port of Tallinn declined by 55 % during the first nine months of 2020 compared to the year before
                  21
               . Leisure cruises were completely interrupted. During the first 11 months of 2020, passenger numbers in air transport decreased by 73 % compared to the previous year
                  22
               .
            
            
               19.As a result, jobs were lost quickly, especially in travel companies, accommodation, catering and conference services, event organization, and transport
                  23
               .
            
            
               Expected impact of the redundancies as regards the local, regional or national economy and employment
            
            
               20.The mass redundancies in the Estonian tourism industry are not only expected to affect the entire industry, but also the national economy as a whole. Estonia argues that tourism contributes largely to the national economic growth and competitiveness and is an important source of employment. According to data collected by the Estonian Ministry of Finance, in 2019, workplaces in the tourism industry accounted for 13,5 % of the total workplaces in Estonia. The difficulties faced in the tourism industry are directly spilling over into connected sectors
                  24
               .
            
            
               21.Estonia argues that during 2020, the total turnover of the Estonian economy suffered a significant drop of 9,5 %. The tourism industry - suffered the biggest losses. The turnover in the tourism industry decreased by 19 % (EUR 943 million) during the first half of 2020 alone. Within the tourism industry, during the first half of 2020, the drop was the sharpest among travel agencies and tour operator businesses (57,9 %) and accommodation services (50,9 %)
                  25
               .
            
            
               22.The overall employment rate in Estonia fell from 68,4 % in 2019 to 66,7 % in 2020. The unemployment rate increased from 4,4 % to 6,8 %
                  26
               . In absolute numbers, in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2019, the number of unemployed people increased by 21 800 to 53 100 workers in the fourth quarter of 2020, while the number of employed people declined by 11 800 to 659 500 workers. In addition, the number of workers in full-time jobs declined significantly, reducing by 19 200 people to 567 000 full-time workers in total
                  27
               .
            
         
         
            
               23.Although the crisis hit the whole country, some parts of Estonia have been more severely affected than others. The most affected county is Harju County and the capital city of Tallinn
                  28
               . With its focus on hotels and conference venues, the city of Tallinn relies mostly on foreign visitors. In the second quarter of 2020, the unemployment rate in Tallinn increased by 62 % (8 500 unemployed more) from the previous year (40 % in the rest of Estonia)
                  29
               .
            
            
               24.The tourism industry is unlikely to recover from the crisis quickly. With the pandemic evolving, it is too early to forecast the overall impact on the tourism industry and on employment. Economic forecasts predict that it will take between two and four years for the tourism industry to recover to the pre-crisis levels
                  30
               .
            
            
               25.The social impacts of the redundancies are expected to be considerable. The unemployed tourism workers are likely to be disadvantaged in the Estonian labour market due to their profile. Workers in the sector include a large share of low skilled workers, workers with no professional qualifications, young people, and seasonal and part-time workers. Many self-employed people are active in the tourism industry. The sector is dominated by SMEs that have a weaker crisis resilience compared to bigger companies
                  31
               .
            
            
               Explanation of the exceptional circumstances underlying the admissibility of the application
            
            
               26.Estonia argues that, despite the fact that the application concerns a combination of economic sectors classified under 14 different NACE Revision 2 Divisions, this application should nevertheless be assimilated to an application under Article 4(1)(b) of the EGF Regulation due to exceptional circumstances having a serious impact on employment and the local, regional or national economy, as SMEs are the main type of business in Estonia.
            
            
               27.SMEs are a significant employer in Estonia, accounting for 79,2 % of the total workforce. As many as 91 % of all enterprises are micro-enterprises with less than 10 employees. In 2017, only 0,2 % of Estonian firms were large enterprises, employing more than 250 people. The tourism industry is also dominated by SMEs
                  32
               . 80 % of the accommodation and food service companies, travel agencies and tour operators have only 1-9 employees. Tourism industries also involve a high degree of self-employed. There are some 436 self-employed in accommodation and food services, 3 122 in warehousing and support activities in transportation, and 1 901 in arts and entertainment
                  33
               . 
            
            
               28.The tourism industry is also highly fragmented, covering a wider range of interdependent sectors classified at NACE Revision 2 level, such as accommodation, food and beverage, land, air or water transport, tour operators etc. Estonia applies the Tourism Satellite Account System, in which Estonia Statistics, based on Eurostat “European Implementation Manual on Tourism Satellite Accounts”, classifies goods and services into tourism specific products and non-specific products, for the purpose of measuring the contribution of tourism to the GDP. According to this methodology, the 14 sectors covered by this application compose the tourism industry in Estonia.
            
            
               29.As the redundancies happened during the same timeframe and involved redundant workers with similar backgrounds in highly intertwined sectors that are all commonly summarised under the term tourism industry, combining these redundancies into one EGF application not only reduces administrative burden, but also offers synergy effects.

               30.Out of the 10 080 eligible persons, the estimated number of redundant workers and self-employed persons expected to participate in EGF measures is 5 060.

               THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
            
            
               Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
            
            
               Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (2014-2020) and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1927/2006

               Having regard to the Interinstitutional Agreement of 16 December 2020 between the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission on budgetary discipline, on cooperation in budgetary matters and on sound financial management, as well as on new own resources, including a roadmap towards the introduction of new own resources
                  46
               , and in particular point 9 thereof,
            
            
               Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
            
            
               Whereas:
            
            
               (1)The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) aims to provide support for workers made redundant and self-employed persons whose activity has ceased as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation, as a result of a continuation of the global financial and economic crisis, or as a result of a new global financial and economic crisis, and to assist them with their reintegration into the labour market.
            
            
               (2)The EGF is not to exceed a maximum annual amount of EUR 186 million (2018 prices), as laid down in Article 8(1) of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 2020/2093
                  47
               .
            
            
               (3)On 12 November 2020, Estonia submitted an application to mobilise the EGF, in respect of redundancies and cessations of activities (hereafter referred to as ‘redundancies’) in the tourism industry, defined by the economic sectors classified under the Statistical classification of economic activities in the European Community ('NACE') Revision 2 Division 45 (Wholesale and retail trade and repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles), 49 (Land transport and transport via pipelines), 50 (Water transport), 51 (Air transport), 52 (Warehousing and support activities for transportation), 55 (Accommodation), 56 (Food and beverage service activities), 74 (Other professional, scientific and technical activities), 77 (Rental and leasing activities), 79 (Travel agency, tour operator and other reservation service and related activities), 90 (Creative, arts and entertainment activities), 91 (Libraries, archives, museums and other cultural activities), 92 (Gambling and betting activities), 93 (Sports activities and amusement and recreation activities), in Estonia. The Republic of Estonia is one unit in the Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics ('NUTS')
                  48
                level 2 regions. The application was supplemented by additional information provided in accordance with Article 8(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013. It complies with the requirements for determining a financial contribution from the EGF as laid down in Article 13 of Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013.
            
            
               (4)In accordance with Article 4(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013, the application from Estonia is considered admissible since the redundancies have a serious impact on employment and the national economy.
            
            
               (5)The EGF should, therefore, be mobilised in order to provide a financial contribution of EUR 4 474 480 in respect of the application submitted by Estonia.
            
            
               (6)In order to minimise the time taken to mobilise the EGF, this decision should apply from the date of its adoption,
            
            
               HAVE ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
