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.
According to Delo on 11 December 2010, 813 of planned 1,100 new jobs in 'Mura in partnerji' have been created by mid November 2010. Mura, the largest Slovenian wearing apparel producer, declared bankruptcy in October 2009 and 2639 employees lost their jobs (see factsheet ID 14478). A new company called 'Mura in partnerji' was established. As of November 2010, the company employs 813 employees. The jobs were given to workers that had lost their jobs due to Mura's bankruptcy last year. The new company is located in Murska Sobota in the Pomurska region.
