Description
Atlet improves the profitability of its customers' internal material handling by offering user-oriented and ergonomic products including after sales support and related services. Decreased inflow of orders from the vehicle industry is the reason for this job reduction of between 40 and 49 employees at the factory in Mölnlycke. The factory employed 280 persons prior to this internal restructuring.
