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 13 August 2012, the media group Agora, publisher of Gazeta Wyborcza and owner of an internet portal, announced plans to cut 250 jobs. The redundancies will be implemented by the end of January 2013.
The restructuring programme is implemented in response to changes on the media market, which occurred over the last years. The company is to reduce its operational costs.
Agora declared intention to implement supportive measures for the redundant workers. The company negotiates the conditions of the programme with the local trade unions.
