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.
Cimos, an international auto parts supplier owned by the German financial fund Mutares, has announced a collective dismissal of 175 workers in Slovenia. The company units located in Maribor, Senožeče, Vuzenica, and Koper will face layoffs. The plant in Senožeče with 112 employees will be the most affected. This facility will be sold, and production will be relocated to Gradačac in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The workforce reductions are attributed to a decline in sales and the company's inability to secure enough new orders. The trade union has filed a complaint against the company with the Inspectorate of Labour, alleging that the company unlawfully employed workers during the dismissal period. Currently, Cimos operates plants in Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, employing approximately 2,000 workers in total, with around 500 based in Slovenia.
