Description
The company Creaciones Ducal is specialised in the manufacture of textiles and is based in Alzira (Castellón, Valencia). On 6 April 2005, the company announced it was studying the reorganisation of 80% of its workforce, 120 employees out of 150, which would shift contract from fixed to discontinuous, as the poor markets conditions leave the workers unemployed 80 days per year.
