German electric utilities company Enervie will cut 485 jobs by the end of 2019. Negotiations between the management and the works council wer completed with a settlement of interests and a redundancy programme. The company has already found a socially acceptable solution for 390 employees. Additionally, Enervie strives to avoid direct dismissals and offers employees the opportunity to move to a transition company. The company also wants to keep some of the affected employees in other positions.
