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.
Autoliv France, subsidiary of the Swedish automotive safety systems manufacturer and suppplier Autoliv, is to cut 164 jobs at its site in Gournay-en-Bray (Seine-Maritime) in response to the decreasing market. The management announced that the job reduction measure would be achieved through a twelve weeks voluntary departure plan. If there are not enough volunteers, the group will then have to dismiss employees until November 2016.
After the announcement, employees have decided to go on strike and ask for a meeting with the group management.
