Description
In November 2008, car manufacturer Revoz will reduce the number of employees by 200 (half of the employees on the third shift). The jobs will be lost by the employees with fixed-term contracts and is due to the reduction of daily production from 900 to 750 cars. The production has diminished due to decreased demand for cars produced by Revoz (Renault Clio and Renault Twingo). Revoz is owned by French company Renault.
