BAE Systems Cutting Up to 200 Jobs in Ohio

BAE Systems announced it is cutting an additional 150 to 200 jobs in Fairfield, Ohio. The layoffs are in addition to the 100 jobs the company said were being cut earlier this month.

BAE Systems, a UK-based defense contractor, told the Cincinnati Inquirer the jobs are being eliminated because several big contracts are expiring and defense spending is being reduced. The cuts will be made throughout March and will mostly involve temporary, contract positions, though some full-time positions will also be cut.

The company will employ about 1,500 in Fairfield and West Chester following the cuts.

BAE Systems has 107,000 employees worldwide and generates $36 billion in revenue.

Testimonial of the Week

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.
