Abstract: The consequences of industrial firm close-down on the local training system are not really well-known. This paper goes back over a mass redundancy in a worker village of the East of France in 1981. A family company of around 300 employees succeeded its development based on the settling process of the workers' families, who accessed to the labour market through a familiar way. Beyond the parents' unemployment, the rough stop of industrial activities in the village handicaps children to obtain a first professional experience. Then, a family spreading of unemployment acts, of which we detail the mechanisms, using quantitative data and ethnographic survey. We measure the impact of belonging to a family on the labour market access, by the way of a job in a firm, or failing that, by the way of unemployment institutions.
