Description
Finnish private public transport operator Transdev has initiated employer-employee negotiations at its bus depot in Espoo. Transdev is planning to make 200 employees redundant. The internal restructuring is due to the expansion of the western metro line of Helsinki and Espoo. Redundancies will be implemented in August when the western extension of the metro opens for traffic. Less than 60 employees will remain at the bus depot in Espoo.
Transdev has previously operated under the names Connex and Veolia.
