Description

Producer of landing gear solutions Goodrich Aerospace Poland, a subsidiary of Collins Aerospace, announced that it will cut 226 jobs throughout a collective dismissal programme. The programme will be implemented at two company’s locations (Tajęcina and Krosno) by the end of September 2020. The company undertook this internal restructuring as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic; according to the company, measures included in the Anti-Crisis Shield (a package of laws aimed to support Polish companies amid the growing pandemic) will be insufficient to deal with the effects of the pandemic. Collins Aerospace is a leader in technologically advanced and intelligent solutions for the aerospace and defence industry.

Goodrich Aerospace Poland employs about 1,200 at its two sites.

UPDATE 25/09/2020:

The company announced a second stage of job cuts related to the COVID-19 pandemic, affecting 91 positions in Krosno and 32 in Tajęcina by the end of 2020. Negotiations with the local trade unions are expected to be carried out by October 2020. The restructuring programme will affect mostly machine operators, chemical process operators, fitters, quality controllers as well as support and administrative staff.
