• Re-engineering of the organisational process (e.g. combining some units, freezing of some positions if they become
vacant);
• Reduction of excessive overtime and S&T Travelling claims;
• Reduction of the excessive acting of employees to high positions;
• Elimination of the acting of employees on unfunded positions etc.
