Jastrzębska Spółka Węglowa (JSW), a coal mining company, has announced that its subsidiary Ruch Jas-Mos will be transferred to Spółka Restrukturyzacji Kopalń (SRK). The restructuring programme involves about 1,600 jobs cut in 2016. Redundant workers will receive a severance pay. The programme is a part of larger restructuring plans aiming at increasing financial effectiveness as the company is facing financial problems resulting from the crisis in Poland’s coal-mining industry.
Spółka Restrukturyzacji Kopalń is an entity which manages the process of closing down mining companies, including managing of the assets of liquidated mines.
Jastrzębska Spółka Węglowa employs about 24,000 people.
