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.
The management of the regional Hospital in Białystok (Wojewódzki Szpital Białostocki) plans to cut over 200 jobs - i.e. approximately 100 in technical services, 30 kitchen personnel jobs, and 77 jobs in the children's surgical ward. Long-term restructuring plans call for the reduction of 400 jobs by 2015. These will not be collective redundancies; some of the employees are expected to be transferred to other hospitals while others will retire. The hospital's workforce is threatening industrial action.
