Description

The data-processing engineering and service firm Arès announced on 27 October 2006 that it will cut between 100 and 110 jobs between November and the end of December 2006.

The company, employing 2,000 people, argues that the decision responds to the financial difficulties it is going through. The trade unions, however, consider that these cuts, primarily of white collar employees, are not a sufficient answer 'vis-a-vis' the difficulties of the company.
