Description

Waste company Everest is planning to dismiss 98 employees from its plant located in Leon (Castilla y Leon). This would reduce the company’s workforce by 25%.

Unions oppose the measure. They ask for alternative cost-saving measures such as the implementation of an early retirement scheme  or reduction of costs related to travels.
