Metsä Fibre, a member of the Metsä Group, will start change negotiations on possible temporary layoffs at the Joutseno and Rauma pulp mills and the Rauma sawmill. The negotiations involve the entire personnel of these production facilities, a total of approximately 465 people.
The change negotiations are used to prepare for the temporary need to restrict production due to the order backlog and the weakened market situation.
Any layoffs would last for a maximum of 90 days and could be implemented in several cycles by the end of December 2025. The allocation, amounts and dates of layoffs will be specified during 2025.
Change negotiations will begin in week 20 and are expected to last for two weeks.
