In the event of dissolution, the corporate assets are distributed among the shareholders only after the capital shares have been fully amortised.
The portion representing the labour shares, in accordance with the decisions taken by the general meeting of the workers’ cooperative convened for this purpose, is then distributed among the participants and former participants with at least ten years of consecutive service in the company’s establishments, or at least a period of uninterrupted service equal to half the duration of the company, and who have left the company for one of the following reasons: voluntary or compulsory retirement with pension entitlement, illness or disability resulting in unfitness for the job previously held, redundancy due to job cuts or downsizing.
However, former participants fulfilling the conditions provided for in the previous paragraph only appear in the distribution for a share corresponding to the duration of their services reduced by one tenth of its total amount per year elapsed since the termination of their services.
The dissolution of the public limited company brings about the dissolution of the workforce cooperative.
