No­var­tis cuts jobs at Swiss plant as a UK fa­cil­i­ty sits in a hold­ing pat­tern with 200 po­si­tions on the line — re­ports

Swiss drug­mak­er No­var­tis launched an am­bi­tious work­force re­struc­tur­ing plan back in 2018 with plans to cut more than 2,000 jobs across the sup­ply chain. Now the af­ter­shocks of that de­ci­sion are still be­ing felt with one of the com­pa­ny’s fa­cil­i­ties in its na­tive coun­try set to close.

No­var­tis will close its fa­cil­i­ty in Lo­carno, Switzer­land, with around 50 po­si­tions set to be ter­mi­nat­ed, ac­cord­ing to Reuters.
