Description
MA Polska, an automotive supplier of car body parts, plans to lay off 260 employees from its facilities in Kielce and Tychy.

The layoffs, which are scheduled to end by the end of 2024, will mainly affect production roles like welders, sheet metal workers, and operators. Negotiations with labour unions to discuss severance packages are ongoing.
