Rulmenti Barlad, manufacturer of bearings, announced the intention to dismiss 384 employees by the end of March 2014, as result of a fall in international market demand. The company notified the collective dismissals to the County Agency for Employment Vaslui and to the Territorial Labour Inspectorate.
