Description
Renova, a waste management and recycling company in western Sweden, has announced a reduction of 96 jobs. The measure is due to the ongoing economic recession and increased competition.
Renova employs 933 people in Gothenburg; the reduction will start during the upcoming year, with a combination of natural attrition, early retirements, transfers and dismissals.
