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.
Human rights charity Amnesty International has announced plans to cut nearly one hundred jobs. The charity has a staff of approximately 650 staff and is proposing around 95 redundancies. The charity had faced criticism for its working practices after the suicides of two of its employees amid allegations of a toxic workplace culture.
The decision to cut jobs is a result of an overspend by the organisation's senior management team, according to the Unite trade union. The cuts are subject to a three month consultation period, and it is expected that the losses will take place in October 2019.
