Mid-west loses out yet again to ‘lower cost locations’ overseas

THE 370 jobs lost at Element 6 are to follow an overseas route just as the 2,000 wiped out at Dell.

E6 plant general manager, Ken Sullivan, said: “They are going to lower cost locations. We obviously have an operation in South Africa, and some of the jobs will be relocated there and others will be either going to other parts of the existing Element Six group or possibly to other out sources.”
