Michael Rolant, the new manager of CreoScitex in Israel says that the 50 employees (5% of the work force in Israel) are laid off “to streamline the local activity to the current world market conditions”.
Of the 50 employees, 15 are permanent positions and 25 are hourly workers.
It is also rumored that 40+ people are to be laid off in the Bedford office (mostly from MIS and Customer Service departments).
