Description

Public healthcare organisation IrisZorg is to cut 250 out or 1205 jobs. As announced, the job reduction measure is going to take place by means of natural attrition and non-renewal of fixed term contracts, although forced redundancies are not excluded. Managerial and support services staff will be mostly affected.

As reported, the restructuring is linked with budget cuts and the transfer of responsibilities to the municipalities in 2015. The timeline for the restructuring is not yet available.
