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.
On 27 January 2009, Schiphol Airport announced that it will cut between 220 and 550 jobs over the next two years. This cut represents a 10-25% reduction of the workforce (2,200 employees). The cuts are due to falling transport figures and increased competition. Schipol Airport has also pointed to the credit crisis and a new tax for passengers (introduced on 1 July). The restucturing will affect all types of jobs. Forced dismissals are not ruled out.
