The Road and Motorway Directorate of the Czech Republic, a national contributory organisation founded by Ministry of Transport, is to cut 200 jobs by the end of 2010 as part of cost saving package approved by the government. The workforce reduction will affect mainly administrative employees. Manual workers will be less affected by the dismissals. The state organisation currently employs about 1,900 people across the Czech Republic.
