Up to 45 jobs are to be lost at a historic Bridgnorth company, it was confirmed today.
Bridgnorth Aluminium, which has manufactured aluminium strip since 1933, also confirmed that from April 1 it would be introducing an eight-hour shift rota, replacing its current 12-hour, four days on, four off work pattern.Employees are now going through a consultation, with company bosses hoping to minimise the impact through voluntary redundancies.
A spokesman for Bridgnorth Aluminium said:"A major customer is shifting their operations from the Netherlands to China. "There were already existing pressures on the company which I am sure we can all appreciate whether it be the war in Ukraine, inflationary impacts and the cost of energy. It's a challenging position for a lot of businesses right now.
"The company has been based at its current location for more than 60 years and has faced challenges in the past and it will bounce back again."There will be a period of consultation and voluntary redundancies are available as well which will hopefully lessen the impact as much as possible.
