(ANSA) - Milan, February 26 - Armani fashion house is set to
lay off 100 logistics and service staff employed at a company
branch in the Swiss town of Mendrisio, Giorgio Fonio from the
Ticino Christian-Social Organization union said Friday.
"There were 130 employed in Mendrisio, and they fell to 100
over the years," Fonio said, adding that two-thirds of the
employees live just over the border in Italy and commute to work
in Switzerland.
"They are willing to move to Milan, but the Swiss citizens
(among them) can't accept the offer," he said.
