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.
Luka Koper (Port of Koper) plans to hire 200 port workers by September 2019. Two sets of reasons are behind this decision: a future extension of its scale of operations and a major employement restructuring in the firm. Luka Koper received the right for a new port concession area which will enable to increase its transhipment capacities. In addition, the company underwent a big restructuring after the decision taken by the Labour Inspectorate which detected a considerable number of misused civil law contracts. In the following months, the status of 346 workers will be modified from outsourced workers to agency workers, while about 300—400 will continue to work through subcontractors. As these measures will not meet all demands for the workforce, the company will employ an additional 200 workers by September 2019.
