Drei Viertel aller Stellen verschwinden bei Afag in Zell

Hiobsbotschaft für die Angestellten in Zell. Nach dem Aufkauf durch eine US-Firma sollen 90 Jobs nach Deutschland und Ungarn ausgelagert werden.

Der Industriezulieferer Afag Automation kündigt eine Massenentlassung an. 90 der bestehenden 120 Jobs sollen am Produktionsstandort in Zell (LU) verschwinden, wie die «Luzerner Zeitung» schreibt.

Die Belegschaft erhielt die Hiobsbotschaft am Donnerstagnachmittag. Betroffen sind zahlreiche Lernende. Sie zog erst vor drei Jahren von Huttwil (BE) nach Zell und bekam vor wenigen Monaten einen neuen Besitzer aus den USA, der Technologie- und Softwarekonzern Emerson Electrics.

Die Firma lagert die Montage laut mehreren Quellen nach Deutschland und Ungarn aus. Der US-Konzern habe den Stellenabbau mit hohen Lohn-. und Fixkosten des Standorts Zell begründet.

Zur Zeitung hiess es von der Firma lediglich, sie habe ein Konsultationsverfahren eingeleitet. Damit wird versucht, die Zahl der geplanten Entlassungen zu vermeiden oder zu minimieren. Afag verwies auf eine deutsche PR-Agentur, die aber auf mehrere Anfragen der Zeitung nicht reagierte.

Die Firma stellt Komponenten für die Montageautomation her und beliefert Konzerne wie Schurter in Luzern oder Bosch und Siemens.
