Frequently asked questions
Which is the largest employer in Manufacture of fabricated metal products, except machinery and equipment in Hainaut?
Among companies, KNDS Belgium, with 246.2 full-time equivalents reported (financial year 2025).
Are all the jobs located in the area?
Not necessarily: headcount is reported by the company for all its sites, and the company is ranked by the address of its registered office. 271 out of 513 companies in the sector report employees there.
Why does this ranking differ from other lists?
