TOMAHAWK, WI (WSAU) — Harley Davidson has announced it will layoff 50 workers at its Tomahawk manufacturing facility.
“As course of normal business, Harley-Davidson regularly adjusts its production plan and appropriately sizes its workforce. The company announced it will adjust its production volume, which will result in a workforce reduction of approximately 50 Tomahawk employees,” read a statement from the Milwaukee-based company.
A message to employees said that COVID-19 related economic slowdowns are to blame.
Some Harley employees say they are angry that the company will be brining back some temporary workers, who are paid less, to replace regular employees.
Harley Davidson cut 39 workers from the same plant four years ago.
