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.
Laundry Company Berendsen has announced that it is to close its site in Mossley, Greater Manchester. The closure will result in the loss of 250 jobs, 100 of which are permanent positions and 150 of which are agency jobs. Workers had been led to believe that jobs were secure following the signing of a contract with Manchester United Football Club. However, it is being reported that the site will now close and will do so after the 30 days statutory consultation period. The company has said that it will try to redeploy affected workers where possible.
