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.
On 11 December 2012, producer of car seats and other car equipment, Johnson Controls announced plans to cut 117 jobs in the factory in Bierun (located in the Katowice Special Economic Zone). The dismissals will be implemented by the end of March 2013.
The restructuring programme is directly assiociated with the dismissals and reduction of production announced in December 2012 in Fiat, a customer of Johnson Controls (see here).
The factory in Bierun employs 500 people.
