ASCO to Add 328 Jobs By Erik Even  |  Dated: 02-18-2009

ASCO Power Technologies will expand its operations in Welcome, North Carolina, investing $11.4 million and adding 328 jobs over five years.

ASCO makes emergency and standby power transfer equipment. It is a subsidiary of electronics giant Emerson, and is based in New Jersey.

According to the governor’s office, the new jobs will pay an average of $43,924 per year, not including benefits, well above Davidson County’s average wage $29,432.

The state awarded a job development investment grant that could be worth up to $2.5 million to ASCO if it hits its job creation targets. County-level incentives totaled $160,000.

ASCO will add up to 100,000 square feet to its existing facility in Welcome, with construction set to begin in 60 to 90 days.

ASCO already employs about 211 people in North Carolina, including 190 already in Welcome.

Only TravelingCrossing consolidates every job it can find in the domain and puts all of the job listings it locates in one place.

  • We have more jobs than any other job board.
  • We list jobs you will not find elsewhere that are hidden in small regional publications and employer websites
  • We collect jobs from more than 4,429,376 websites and post them on our site.
  • We are private, and therefore far fewer people are applying for the jobs on our site than are applying for those on public job boards.
What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
