Description

Dafgårds, which manufactures and distributes frozen and chilled products, will cut 160 jobs in Källby. The reason for this decision is the productivity improvement and the reduced need of personal resources. According to the HR manager, Bengt Olsson, 104 laid-off workers could be offered a part-time job within the plan, which is expected to be achieved in May 2005.
