Description

Finnish electronics maker Incap Oyj is to cut a total of 124 jobs in its Vuokatti factory due to its decision to wind up the unit this year. Incap will transfer the plant's production to Estonia. The company estimates that the concentration of its European electronics manufacturing into one unit will bring savings of some EUR 3m in 2011.
