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.
Refinery producer of bitumen, base oil, and paraffin products, Société de la Raffinerie de Dunkerque, has announced to its works council a restructuring plan envisaging 177 job cuts. As announced, the job reduction measure is linked with a decision to cease the production of refined crude-oil by-products, that are no longer considered as profitable. According to the sources, a three months consultation process will be launched on 6 November. The union CGT has organised a 24 hours strike on 22 October to denounce the decision.
