If implemented, the lay-offs of up to 90 days will be completed by the end of October 2019.<\/p>\n<p>According to Stora Enso, the lay-off plans are due to market volatility that is expected to persist in 2019. Supply seems to exceed demand in the sawn timber market. In addition, high log prices weaken the profitability of the sawmill industry.<\/p>\n<p>Stora Enso previously announced that is implementing a\u00a0cost-cutting programme\u00a0of Euro 120 million targeting reductions in variable and fixed costs, as market uncertainty increases. Stora Enso estimates that some effects will be visible already during 2019 with full impact by the end of 2020.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the programme, Stora Enso is planning to close paper machine 6 at Imatra Mills in Finland and to start co-determination negotiations at the mill related to this plan.
