Downsizing – How To Make Employees Redundant In Poland

In recent years, it has been assumed that collective redundancies are the domain of financial institutions, particularly banks, which rely on remote customer services. However, the COVID-19 pandemic reality seems to have shifted the emphasis. The statistics on the number of redundancies reported in the media indicate that the number of people made redundant in 2020 is twice as high as those made redundant in 2019. The reason for this was the COVID-19 pandemic. This trend is expected to continue in 2021 as well. This applies in particular to the industries most affected by the restrictions, such as tourism, but also to retail due to the returning restrictions on the operation of shopping malls.
