Abstract: The number of staff restructuring processes has considerably increased worldwide in recent years, and their effects are increasingly dramatic. Furthermore, the global economic context is becoming more and more turbulent. All this poses a series of new challenges for firms that they will only be able to face if they utilize the traditional tools which are available to them. However, the research works about staff restructuring processes offer highly disparate results with regard to the effects of the methods used. This is precisely the reason which led us to focus the present work on analyzing those ‘old methods' applied to restructuring with the aim of checking how they could be successfully utilized to cope with the ‘new challenges' arising from this new economic context.
