What believers are saying
- Future assignments have contracted backing: BESIX's May 2026 results showed a EUR 6.7 billion year-end order book.
- Employees have formal learning routes: BESIX targets five annual training days and lists 150-plus courses alongside its technical academies.
- Brussels work gains another project: BESIX's September 2026 The Fifty Six redevelopment contract covers 18,000 square metres, due spring 2028.
What critics are saying
- Site safety remains critical: BESIX reported three 2025 fatalities in May 2026, two employees and one subcontractor.
- Property development slowed: a May 2026 report linked BESIX RED's lower 2025 turnover to cost inflation and lengthy permits.
