Description
Italian regional bank Credito Valtellinese (Creval) is to dismiss about 230 workers.
According to the 2017-2018 action plan, Creval is to reduce its operative costs and reorganise its branches. This will result in the closure of about 70 branches and 230 job cuts across 25 branches. The job losses will be implemented through early retirements to take place in 2017 and 2018. Another 100 workers will be transferred and, if necessary, retrained.
The bank, which has recently shed its cooperative status and has become a joint stock company, currently operates in 11 Italian regions with 526 branches.
Update, 21 December 2016: The management and unions agreed 234 exits to be achieved by voluntary early retirements. The bank also underwrote to enter 70 open-ended contracts, for both its temporary employees and new staff.
