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.
The fourth phase of the Courier company Unipost's closure will imply 499 dismissals and the closure of 17 centers (five centers in Barcelona, seven centers in Madrid, three centers in Zaragoza and one center in Seville, in Malaga, in Murcia, in Logroño, in Mallorca, in Huesca and in Valencia). Those dismissals come after the employment adjustment announced in October 2017 (2200 jobs) and the unsuccessful outcome in trying to sell the company to another private company within the sector or to an investment fund.
