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.
EKK Wagon, an operator of railway rolling stock repair workshops, plans to make 200 workers of its 800 strong workforce redundant by late April 2009 in Ostrów Wielkopolski. These new redundancies will be in addition to the 200 jobs already cut on account of plunging orders, particularly on the part of PKP Cargo. In recent months, Polish companies specialised in rolling stock repair and maintenance have cut 1,600 jobs; aggregate employment in this industry is estimated at 18,000.
