Description
Ahold's Dutch supermarket chain Albert Heijn plans to cut approximately 370 jobs throughout its store network. The cuts are a consequence of Albert Heijn's decision to scrap its management assistant positions. 'The 370 management assistants don't know when their jobs will be cut and what the consequences will be,' said the unions.
