The leadership of Bucharest's Transport Company (STB) is addressing the issue of drivers taking fraudulent medical leave. Many drivers reportedly engage in temporary work while on sick leave, leading to concerns about fairness among honest employees. The company plans to lay off over 800 employees, including around 200 drivers, which could exacerbate existing staffing shortages. Union representatives express that the layoffs could severely impact public transport services. The STB is also facing financial difficulties, with significant debts prompting insolvency proceedings. Pre-notices for layoffs are expected to be issued soon, affecting various staff categories.
