Description
Pharmaceutical manufacturer Esteve will apply for a redundancy procedure (ERE) affecting 225 employees from its pharmaceutical division (15% of its entire workforce). The measure is attributed to a drop in the revenues recorded in this area. Before the company applied for the ERE, the restructuring started with around 90 job losses via early retirement schemes and non-renewal of temporary contracts.
