Restructuring events
European Restructuring Monitor (ERM)
The restructuring events database contains factsheets with data on large-scale restructuring events reported in the principal national media and company websites in each EU Member State. This database was created in 2002.
Leithäuser, a German producer of leather clothing, will cut 200 jobs throughout a collective dismissal programme at its production facility in Leszno, Poland. The restructuring is related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and it was registered by the company at the local employment agency in Leszno. The company is entitled to public support under the anti-crisis scheme, but so far it has not applied for it. The source reports that a local Member of Parliament offers legal advice to the redundant employees.
