Description
White goods manufacturer Electrolux Lehel is to hire 100 additional staff for its plant in Jászberény over 2014.
This is partly due to the starting production of hoovers at this site.
The company is a subsidiary of Swedish Electrolux Group that employs about 60,000 staff globally. In October, the group had announced a global restructuring programme that could result in 2,000 job losses. To the contrary, the company’s Hungarian sites have seen an increase in their workforces of 200 so far in 2013.
