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.
The Government of the Republic of Croatia is looking to employ 300 new civil servants in different positions across various ministries and other similar institutions. The call for new staff was published in the Official Gazette (Narodne Novine) and on the official website of the Ministry of Public Administration. The overall recruitment procedure has recently been simplified and the process accelerated, as the Government of Croatia issued a new decision on this during its session in July 2017.
According to postings on the website of the Ministry of Public Administration, municipal, county, commercial courts and state attorneys throughout Croatia hope to employ a further 80 people. In addition, the Ministry of Regional Development and EU Funds has open positions for 62 people, the Ministry of Agriculture has 44, the Ministry of State Property has 32, the Ministry of Labour has 14, the Ministry of Justice (Prison Administration) and the State Audit Office has 13 job openings.
