Update: Whirlpool Layoffs Between 600-1000
By todd | Dated: 08-24-2010
A Whirlpool spokesperson sent out an email to a local community paper, detailing the layoff plan announced in late 2009. The email said layoffs at the fridge-maker will begin in October, after the counter-depth refrigerator production at the plant in Fort Smith, Arkansas.More layoffs, which were only recently announced, will take place November. Saletta said the layoffs were “due to softening of demand, which is typical at this time of year.
A local television station in Arkansas claimed the number of layoffs would fall between the number of 600 and 1,000.
Whirlpool will also conduct layoffs at his Benton Harbor, Michigan headquarters. 216 employees at that facility will receive pink slips sometime this year or early next year.
