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.
Teleperformance USA, a company specialised in contact center management, has announced that it will lay off 157 employees in France. Additionally, the management envisages to implement a 'mobility plan' (plan de mobilité') affecting 318 employees and a 'redeployment plan' (plan de reclassement) for another 157 employees.
The redundancies are the result of a client's decision to reduce overcapacity and streamline some operations into fewer locations. Teleperformance management emphasized that the client's decision is not a reflection of level of performance at the affected sites, but rather a strategic move designed to rationalise resources.
