Construction company Kraški zidar, based in Sežana, has entered the bankruptcy procedure. The company currently employs 310 employees, which will all be made redundant by August 20, 2012.
The restructuring is blamed on the economic crisis, which has hit the construction sector particularly hard. The company has been struggling with payment arrears and lack of new orders.
