The Bucharest Transport Company (STB) faces financial difficulties, with half of its 10,137 employees having family ties. The company has been in insolvency, primarily due to collective labor agreement clauses. In 2025, STB reported significant medical leave and a substantial budget deficit. The administrator proposes fare increases and cuts in employee benefits to improve finances. Restructuring has led to a reduction of over 1,700 positions, and a new collective labor agreement has been signed, reducing severance pay and vacation days. The company also plans to digitize operations and eliminate certain services to enhance revenue.
