USA: T-Shirt Firm Tee Jays Axes 210 Jobs
Scores of workers at clothing producer Tee Jays Manufacturing Co are to lose their jobs at the end of August after the company announced it was axing it screen-printing and packaging operations. The Alabama-based company, which axed 660 workers late last year, will make at least 210 people redundant when it transfers the operations to the Dominican Republic as part of a transition alliance with Caribbean textile firm Grupo M.
