On 15 December 2010, the Regional Police Directorate in Pilsen announced that by the end of May 2011 some 140 civil employees, mainly administrative staff, will be made redundant. Restructuring measures are part of a state saving package. During 2010 all civil employees have already signed an agreement about shortening of working day by half an hour which impacted wages.
