Description

Flextronics will cut 99 jobs in Karlskrona to adapt its production capacity to the decision of an important client to stop subcontracting the production of printed circuit boards. Negotiations with the personal are expected to be achieved in March 2005. About 400 jobs will be left at the Karskrona plant after the implementation of the redundancy plan.
