Description

At the end of December 2011, Mediaset-Endemol announced the closure of the soap-opera "Centovetrine", with the consequent loss of 150 jobs. The redundant workers are costume designers and other craft-workers formerly employed at the TV set.

The company has been criticized for a lack of communication concerning the redundancies.
