The planned service center in Cluj-Napoca will employ 600 staff, providing mainly accounting services.
A second business service center could be opened in the German capital Berlin.
“The proposed business service centers will employ around 1,100 people. Following extensive analysis, E.ON prefers two locations: Berlin and Cluj-Napoca,” E.ON said.
The Berlin center will primarily provide human resource services.
E.ON expects the proposed measures to be fully implemented by 2015.
“By systematically bundling functions and harnessing synergies across the entire group in this way, E.ON will lose around 1,200 full-time equivalent positions in HR and Accounting. This figure forms part of the 11,000 total envisaged by the E.ON 2.0 efficiency program,” the German utility said.
