Wind turbine manufacturer Vestas expects to have to cut around 440 positions at Lindø.
Vestas informs MarketWire.
The layoffs are due to a major adjustment, the media writes, and will primarily affect production and the night and weekend shift, it says.
- It is always difficult to make decisions that negatively affect our skilled and hard-working colleagues, but we need to ensure that our organization reflects our?production needs.?
- We will explore opportunities for redeployment to other Vestas locations in Denmark for the affected employees, says the company's communications manager Anders Riis to MarketWire.
Vestas employs around 7,000 employees in Denmark.
The company informs MarketWire that it will continue to have a significant presence at Lindø, where nacelles for offshore turbines will still be produced.
Nacelles is the oblong house on top of a windmill.
