Restructuring with a transnational dimension has become a permanent feature in multinational companies. Restructuring processes put also sites and countries in competition with each other. Faced with these challenges the EMF and its affiliates have to find appropriate responses at European level.

In this connection, the EMF has developed an EMF Policy Approach towards Socially Responsible Company Restructuring and an EMF handbook on how to deal with transnational restructuring. The handbook contents various tools to respond to transnational restructuring at European level.
