Boeing Gives Layoff Notices to 845 Workers
- Share via
Boeing Co. handed out 60-day layoff notices to 845 employees, the same day about 860 workers spent their last day with the aerospace company.
Most of the new layoff notices were being issued to workers in Boeing’s commercial airplane division, spokesman Bill Cogswell said. The rest were employees in the company’s support division and other Boeing businesses, he said.
The effective date for the new layoffs will be Aug. 22. It was unclear whether any of the job cuts would involve Boeing’s extensive operations in Southern California.
Boeing has cut 33,890 jobs under a payroll reduction plan that started December 2001. The latest round will bring the company close to its initial target of cutting 35,000 jobs.
