Description

Yazaki Company management decided to close one of its production units in Slovakia. All 520 employees are redundant, however 350 of them can get job in the nearby Yazaki plant in city of Prievidza.

According to the management representatives, increasing internal competition between Yazaki production units in Slovakia caused the staff reduction.
