Dia announces a Redundancy Programme (ERE) for a maximum of 65 workers at its headquarters of its 14,000 employees in Spain

25 September 2024, Las Rozas de Madrid. Dia has announced today the implementation of a Redundancy Plan (Expediente de Regulación de Empleo – ERE) that will affect a maximum of 65 employees at its headquarters in Spain. The company has a workforce of more than 14,000 employees in the country. It is part of its strategy to adapt its organisational structure to its current reality with a more focused international perimeter.

From 2022, Grupo Dia has taken key decisions to simplify its operating model and focus its efforts on the Spanish and Argentinean markets. This has included, among others, the sale of the Clarel, Portugal and Brazil businesses in recent times. The decision to carry out the redundancies now respond to the need to adapt the organisation to its new perimeter, thus focusing its efforts on the business units with the greatest growth potential and with the aim of building a stronger future for the company.

The negotiating table with the trade union representatives is now being set up. The company will act responsibly and respectfully, as it has done until now, offering a fluid and constructive dialogue to this end.
