According to a preliminary estimate, the actions may result in the termination or restructuring of 100 permanent positions. The negotiations concern Mets\u00e4 Wood's personnel in Finland and Estonia.<\/p>\n<p>The negotiations are being held due to the business area's weakened profitability and changes in the operating environment. Construction in Europe continued to decline in the first half of the year, and the recovery is expected to be delayed and slow.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe business area's result has fallen into a loss. Due to rapidly increasing delivery and raw material costs and the intensified competitive situation, it is necessary to assess our operations to secure profitability and long-term competitiveness,\u201d says Jussi Noponen, President and CEO of Mets\u00e4 Wood, in a press release.<\/p>\n<p>Mets\u00e4 Wood employs approximately 1,600 people. The business area's products include LVL, birch and softwood plywood, and further processed lumber.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":98738,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"Default","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5204],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-98737","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 -
