WSRC Plans Workforce Restructuring At Savannah River Site
Westinghouse Savannah River Company seeks a 2006 job cut target at the nuclear reservation with plan details to be finalized soon. WSRC President Bob Pedde says restructuring starts in 2004 to speed cleanup, reduce risk, and realign staff to higher priority work while offering transfers or new hires with needed skills. The plan aims for modest, frequent reductions, productivity boosts, and elimination of low value tasks as part of a long range staffing forecast for site employees.
