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.

According to the trade unions the restructuring plan will be implemented in all the country, with around 10,000 jobs being cut. The company has not yet announced the number of jobs to be cut at national level yet.
In Italy Poste Italiane has around 147,000 employees and around 14,000 branches; in Lombardy it employs around 21,000 people and around 2,000 branches.
