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.
On 20 July 2009, Fokker Aircraft Services announced it will cut 10% of its total workforce. The unions complain that this is already the third year in a row that 10% of the jobs are cut. The cutbacks are due to the economic crisis hitting severely some leading air carriers and as a result there is less need for aircraft maintenance. As of July 2009, there is no information on when the job losses will be implemented by.
