Quote:Bombardier to cut 7,000 jobs over 2 years
Quote:Bombardier says it will cut its workforce by 7,000 positions over two years, including 2,000 contractors.
Most of the job losses will be in Canada and Europe and will be partly offset by hiring in certain areas, such as its new CSeries aircraft program. The company has 64,000 employees globally.
The Montreal-based aerospace and rail equipment company says the job cuts will begin in the coming weeks and they will be completed by 2017.
The job cuts include:
The company said no jobs will be cut from its commercial aircraft unit.
- 3,200 jobs from its transportation division;
- 2,500 jobs from its aerostructures and engineering services division;
- 800 jobs from its aerospace product development engineering group;
- 500 jobs from its business aircraft unit.
