Nokia furloughing up to 20 percent of employees at only Finnish factory

ef8f1 nokia salo sm Nokia furloughing up to 20 percent of employees at only Finnish factoryOf its nine factories around the world, Nokia has just one in its home country — the only one left in all of Western Europe — in the town of Salo. As you can imagine, its well-being is probably a pretty touchy subject, not just for locals but for Nokia fans around the world — especially when you consider that the company’s highest-end devices are assembled here, making the health of the factory a bellwether for the health of the coolest models in the range. The company has revealed this week that it’ll be sending home up to 20 percent of the plant’s staff for up to 90 days at any one time, saying that there’s simply no need for it to operate at full capacity in the current market; we say you could argue that making the right phones could lead to a need for full capacity, but what do we know? Anyhow, the move closely mirrors one that had already been made for 2009, and you could look on the bright side — at least they’re not closing it down the same way they did Jyväskylä.
