Socially responsible restructuring

Effective strategies for supporting redundant workers
TI-BA-10-002-EN-N
This review of socially responsible restructuring and effective strategies for
supporting redundant workers provides practical evidence of the contributions
of career guidance to socially responsible restructuring, based on desk
research and in-depth analysis of case studies.

The review covers eleven countries, seven of these providing enterprise case
studies (Germany, Latvia, Austria, Slovakia, Finland, Sweden and the UK). It
examines socially responsible restructuring practices by enterprises and, in
particular, strategies to support vulnerable workers who may have particular
difficulties in re-engaging with the labour market; these include career
guidance and training. It also looks at the regional and national responses that
support enterprise restructuring and worker employability.

It highlights innovative and effective practices, in different economic sectors,
which could be transferable across diverse economic contexts and encourage
further debate on socially responsible restructuring.
