Description

On 17 July, the concrete products manufacturer Bonna Sabla, which is part of the group Consolis, announced 240 job cuts and the closure of 15 sites (out of the 52 across France) by the end of 2012. Six additional plants are also affected by the job cuts. Bonna Sabla blames the job cuts on the slowdown in the construction sector and in « the suspension of major infrastructure », says the management.
