What does WSFZ do?
The Guarantee and Social Fund for Sea Fisheries (WSFZ) is the official Income Security Fund for companies operating in key subsectors of the Belgian sea ficheries industry, including:
- Coastal fish auctions (NSSO-code 186)
- Warehousing and storage facilities (NSSO-code 086)
WSFZ plays a vital role in supporting the sector by:
- Managing the payment of supplementary social benefits for employees
- Promoting vocational training and professional development for workers (M/F/X) employed in Flemisch fish auctions and associated warehouses
Through these initiatives, WSFZ contributes to the long-term sustainability and social well-being of the sea fisheries workforce.
