Union sources said Wednesday that
some of the 800 jobs at risk by a threatened Whirlpool plant
closure may be saved. The company and union leaders were meeting
on ways to avoid the closure of plant at Carinaro owned by the
United States-based multinational. It announced plans to lay off
2,060 workers at its Italy plants with the Carinaro factory in
Caserta province slated for closure. The Italian government has
called for a new business plan in line with agreements made last
year when Whirlpool bought out Italian manufacturer Indesit.
