Patria starts employee co-operation negotiations in its Land Business Unit

Patria starts employee co-operation negotiations in its Land Business Unit concerning all employees both in Hämeenlinna and Tampere. Negotiations are started due to the productional and financial reasons, as the order backlog is decreasing due to the finalisation of the current delivery projects. Reorganisation of the operations will also be considered in order to ensure competitiveness and lean administration. Goal is to find alternative measures to redundancies such as reorganising work, adjusting terms of employment and lay-offs. The estimated need for reduction is at most 25 person-years. Details and actions will be determined during the negotiations.

The key areas in Land Business Unit include armoured wheeled vehicles, mortar systems and related life cycle support services. Business Unit employs almost 300 people in Hämeenlinna and Tampere.
