VINCENNES, Ind. (AP) - A glass-products factory in southwestern Indiana is planning to recall about 80 workers who were laid off late last year since it has signed a new contract.
The general manager of the Schott Gemtron factory in Vincennes says he expects the workers to be recalled this month and some more jobs could be added by the end of the year.
Tim Kiger tells the Vincennes Sun-Commercial that the hiring comes after the company signed a major deal with General Electric and Whirlpool and that the company will also be shifting some production to Vincennes from factories in Georgia and Kentucky. He says the factory will be making large refrigerator doors like those seen on large coolers in convenience stores.
About 350 people now work at the factory.
