Carrefour has come to agreement with major French unions, including the FO, CFDT, GSC and CFTC, regarding the voluntary departure of some 2,400 employees from its Paris headquarters, as well as relating to redundancies from the pending closure of some 273 former DIA outlets.
The retailer announced the plans in January with the launch of its 'Carrefour 2022' transformation plan, however, unions had to date rejected the voluntary packages proposed by the retailer, which led to strikes around the Easter period.
