Restructuring events
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.
MTVA, an umbrella organization for the Hungarian public media outlets, plans to dismiss 177 employees by the second quarter of 2015. The layoffs will affect 146 workers in Budapest and 31 workers in Pécs and Szeged. The unions have rejected the plan of a collective dismissal as they argue that the planned redundancies are not about saving money (as there have been simultaneous job creation measures). Some of the currently internally produced programs will be outsourced to external production companies.
