Restructuring

A company functions largely as a living organism that constantly needs to adapt to changes in the external environment. Therefore, reorganizations are common and can sometimes mean that certain positions are abolished and that employees are dismissed due to a shortage of work. Although it is the employer who has the right to decide on the organization of the company, the union must be informed and invited to negotiations to give its view on the reorganization before a final decision can be made and implemented.
