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.
Belgian media company RTBF is to cut 201 jobs. In 2009, management of the French speaking radio and TV group agreed with the Wallonia government a saving plan of 24 million euro from 2010 to 2012. The plan should have resulted in the cut of 112 full-time equivalent jobs. Finally, 201 workers (journalists, technicians, administratif staff) from the Belgian French-speaking radio and TV are instead to benefit from an early-retirement scheme. No direct dismissals are therefore planned.
