Jennie-O Plans Closure, Layoffs Coming

It looks like there will be layoffs coming when Jennie-O closes its plant in western Wisconsin.

The company announced plans back in January to end turkey harvesting at the plant in Barron. This month, Jennie-O said 38 people will lose their jobs. The company says everyone who works in harvesting at the plant will have an opportunity to apply for other jobs. If they don’t get one of those jobs, they will be let go.
