Whirlpool trims nearly 350 jobs at Amana plant in modernization push
Whirlpool is cutting nearly 350 jobs at its Amana, Iowa, refrigerator plant—about a quarter of the 1,500 employees—as part of a multi-year modernization to broaden and diversify production. Layoffs begin March 9, with potential additional reductions later; the company will offer on-site HR support and unemployment guidance, and recall rights for affected workers are limited.
