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.
Coventry Council has announced it will cut 311 jobs.
The local authority assured it will not make any compulsory redundancies as 281 workers are leaving through voluntary redundancy or early retirement schemes, and a further 370 workers had expressed an interest in these schemes. Nonetheless, the council is unable to allow these 370 workers to take redundancy or retirement as they occupy posts that are essential to its business. The council is looking to redeploy other workers into these roles to allow the workers interested in the voluntary schemes to be released. An additional 30 posts have been cut by terminating workers on short term contracts.
