BMW To Cut 500+ Jobs
MAU Workforce Solutions, a staffing company that supplies BMW, N.A. with their temp workers, has forecast a loss of at least 500 jobs for the Upstate corporation come December. In fact, the number could be as high as 733 lost jobs.
Most layoffs are on the production line, with more coming from logistics. Affected individuals have already been notified and will be paid through the Christmas holiday. MAU promises to help individuals find new jobs, and there are high hopes many will be hired back once BMW’s current expansion project is completed.
In another sign of the bad economic times, even the behemoth BMW is experiencing a rough patch, proven by the fact that 75% of their new Z4 line is being shipped overseas.
