Description

Car supplier Bosch plans to create about 1500 new jobs in Hungary by the end of 2011. The jobs will be created in the Miskolc and Hatvan plants for the production of ignition, gearbox, windscreen wiper mechanisms and generators which is in the process of being offshored from Wales. The new jobs mark an upturn in Bosch's Hungarian employment which in recent years has been reduced from a high of 7250.
