286 Workers in Central Kentucky in Danger of Layoffs

As many as 286 employees in central Kentucky are in danger of being laid off by Affiliated Computer Services Inc.

ACS was purchased earlier this year by Xerox Corp. and provides outsourcing services for government agencies.

The locations receiving the bad news are three sites: London, Monticello, and Richmond, Kentucky.

Kevin Lightfoot, spokesman for ACS, said that the layoffs are contingent upon actions of an unspecified client.

ACS employs about 4,000 people in the state of Kentucky, and despite the presently announced layoffs, they reported last month that they intend to hire some 320 people for positions in Lexington and Danville.
