Boeing Vertol to lay off about five hundred workers
About 500 Boeing Vertol employees will lose their jobs by year’s end as cuts begin with 130 laid off Thursday. The reductions reduce staff to about 5,000 in 1981, amid uncertain defense spending and a major Chinooks overhaul contract. Company officials say layoffs reflect weak international orders and reduced commercial helicopter work. The outcome hinges on Reagan defense plans and potential rehire prospects.
