TWA to lay off 300 workers in Kansas City
TWA plans to lay off 300 maintenance workers at its Kansas City overhaul base starting in June as outside contract work dries up. The layoffs follow reduced traffic during the Persian Gulf War, with recovery of grounded planes and cuts in new contract work prompting the company to shift capacity. Local union officials call even one layoff a catastrophe.
