Description
Horsens-based Nissens Industrikølere, a producer of cooling equipment for the manufacturing industry, has announced the dismissals of 190 employees from end of January 2009. Before Christmas the company tried to find alternative solutions by introducing a 'job sharing' scheme waiting for better times for the company's customers (in particular in the windmill industry). However, in January the management finally decided to cut 190 jobs.
