\n

Resolute Forest Products Inc. is temporarily laying off more than 1,000 workers mainly in Quebec because of the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/em><\/p>\n

Some of the layoffs could be extended if economic turbulence and lower demand persist in some of the company\u2019s divisions.<\/p>\n

CEO Yves Laflamme says the cuts will mainly affect wood products, newsprint and specialized pulp, along with head office employees in Montreal.<\/p>\n

Resolute employs about 7,500 people in Canada and the United States with the vast majority located in Quebec.<\/p>\n

The company also says it lost US$1 million during the first quarter, down from a profit of US$42 million a year earlier.<\/p>\n

Revenues declined 13 per cent to US$689 million.<\/p>\n

Results were positive in the forest products, tissue and specialty papers sectors, but the newsprint and commercial pulp divisions posted operating losses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
