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.
The general management of the Union mutualiste de groupe (UMG), part of the Vyv group, has proposed a voluntary redundancy plan, within the framework of a collective agreed redundancy (‘rupture conventionnelle collective’), which would concern 10% of its workforce (about 48 employees).
Groupe VYV is France’s leading health and social protection mutual group. The group’s three divisions—Insurance, Care & Assistance, and Housing—develop comprehensive and personalised offerings to protect and care for all individuals throughout their lives.
Negotiations on the collective agreed redundancy with the trade unions will end in mid-July and the first departures are planned for the autumn. The collective agreed redundancy- a mechanism provided by the ordinance of 22 September 2017- allows an employment contract to be broken by mutual agreement between the employer and the employee. The mechanism must be validated by an agreement signed with the trade unions.
The redundancy decision is part of the UMG's organisational development project, in line with the priorities of the Vyv mutual group's 2025 strategic plan, announced at the beginning of January.
