The provision refers to costs of personnel, including estimated remuneration upon termination of employment in connection with changes in operations. A provision is made when there is an approved restructuring plan and the restructuring has been announced.

Warranties

Recognised provisions for warranties associated with products and services rest on calculations performed based on historical data or, in specific cases, on an individual opinion.
