Manroland’s management and works council have agreed a plan to cut around 500 jobs at the German press builder’s sites in Augsburg, Offenbach, and Plauen by the end of 2012, and to transfer a further 300 employees to the new manroland Industrial Services business unit, which will be founded on January 1, 2011.
The measures are part of a comprehensive restructuring package to secure the company’s long-term independence. The planned job cuts will affect indirect functions in administration, as well as the production areas. As a result, the number of manroland’s worldwide employees will drop to about 6,000 by the end of 2012.
