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.
Isolux Corsán agreed upon a rescue plan with the banks and bondholders in July 2016, in order to restructure the company's debt (around € 2,000 million) and prevent closure. A new management board has been elected, reflecting that banks and bondholders will held 95% of the company's shares once the rescue plan is approved by the judicial court. Following this plan, the company announced at the beginning of September a new collective dismissal scheme which will affect 535 employees, around 35% of the staff. Formal negotiations with the trade unions will start at the end of September.
Update 27-10-2016
Isolux management has accepted a reduction of the number of workers affected by the employment adjustment. Accordingly, 435 instead of 535 workers will be affected. Negotiations on the measure have not yet finished.
