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.
German Q-Cells, a leading European specialist in the development, production and sale of high-performance solar cells made of mono- and multicrystalline silicon, announced its plans to increase its workforce at its Thalheim location from current 1,300 employees to up to 5,000 by the end of the year 2010.
