In its Communication of 29 June 2011 entitled 'A Budget for Europe 2020', the Commission recognises the role of the EGF as a flexible fund to support workers who lose their jobs and to help them to find another job as rapidly as possible.
Ina Theachtaireacht an 29 Meitheamh 2011 dar teideal ‘Buiséad d'Eoraip 2020’, aithníonn an Coimisiún ról CED mar chiste solúbtha chun tacaíocht a thabhairt d'oibrithe a chailleann a bpost agus chun cuidiú leo post eile a aimsiú chomh tapa agus is féidir.
