Greencastle Parts Plant Faces Possible Job Cuts

Last updated on Sunday, November 4, 2007

(GREENCASTLE) - A spokesman for the automotive parts company that employs 1,000 Greencastle workers said he does not know whether job cuts at Chrysler will force similar downsizing in Putnam County.

On Thursday, Chrysler announced it would cut as many as 12,000 jobs next year in an attempt to rebound from lower-than-expected sales and declining demand for its vehicles.

The Greencastle IAC plant manufactures doors and interior paneling for several automakers, though Chrysler is its biggest customer.
