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.
The on-location online food delivery platform has announced a global restructuring plan which will cut 4480 jobs from its global workforce. It is not clear which departments will be impacted, or to what extent the restructuring will impact delivery riders. Getir has stated it will not exit any markets, however, confirmed locations for job cuts are France (Getir-2022-FR), Germany, United Kingdom and USA. The global restructuring has been attributed to uncertain economic forecasts and cost pressures due to inflation.
There is no information on the restructuring process for employees or the involvement of social partners.
Getir operates in Turkey, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Portugal and USA.
