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.
Rogers, an international producer of electrical components and parts, has announced it will restructure its facility in Evergem. In total around 110 employees are at risk of losing their job, 69 blue collar workers and 41 white collar workers.
The main reason behind the restructuring is a shift of production towards other facilities abroad. Trade unions are worried for the future of the facility, given the previous restructuring rounds and a lack of investments.
These reorganisations have been ongoing for a longer period of time and this is the third round of dismissals within the facility.
