Reduction at Migros: That’s what it’s all about

The Migros subsidiary Miduca is closing three of its club schools.
There is a social plan for the affected employees.
However, Miduca is expanding the club school in Basel.

In its latest announcement, the Migros subsidiary Miduca speaks of “innovative location concepts”, “state-of-the-art technologies” and “digital learning formats”. This involves further reductions: the club schools in Brig and Sursee will close at the end of June 2024, and those in Thun at the end of December. In addition, Miduca will no longer use the rooms in Lyss at the end of 2024.

Anyone who has already booked will receive an alternative offer

Courses that are in high demand are continued in external premises whenever possible. The popular swimming courses in Thun continue in the Oberhofen indoor swimming pool. Anyone who has already booked offers in the locations mentioned will receive suggestions for alternatives.

Social plan for affected employees

We are looking for internal alternatives wherever possible for the administrative employees and teachers affected by the location closures. Miduca assumes its responsibility as a social employer and offers employees affected by dismissal a comprehensive social plan with a wide range of support measures, in cooperation with the social partners, according to the statement.

Basel Club School is becoming more digital

Miduca is now focusing on locations with a wide reach and high market potential, the company said. For example, the Basel Club School, which will open a “state-of-the-art center” in the new Clime building on the Grosspeter site this year. She is investing in order to be able to offer her courses regardless of where her customers live.
