Description

OEZ Letohrad, a low-voltage protective devices producer, has announced its intention to create 180 new jobs with the development of a new manufacturing plant in January 2011. The reason behind the job creation is last year´s decision by Siemens group to relocate air breaker production from Berlin (Germany) to the Czech Republic. OEZ has been part of Siemens group since 2007.
