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.
Swedish road construction and infrastructure company Svevia gives notices to 130 employees. The company attributed the restructuring to the need to prepare for the future and increase its profits after a seven percent decrease in net turnover for 2011. Most of the 130 notices will be given to white-collar workers.
The company will go through an internal restructuring in order to strengthen profitability and to specialize its business by dividing it into the divisions; construction, operation, coating and machine and real estate.
