Boeing Co. to Lay Off around 2000 Employees

Boeing Co. will lay off around 2,000 employees in finance and human resources, the US company confirmed Monday. The plane manufacturer confirmed a Seattle Times report which says it expect "about 2,000 reductions this year primarily in finance and HR through a combination of attrition and layoffs".

Boeing also confirmed it is outsourcing about one-third of those jobs to Tata Consulting Services in India.

“We grew Boeing's workforce by 15,000 last year and plan to hire another 10,000 employees this year with a focus on engineering and manufacturing,” Boeing statement said.

Boeing's total workforce was 156,000 employees as of Dec. 31, 2022, the company said.

Last year, it said it planned to cut about 150 finance jobs in the United States to simplify its corporate structure and focus more resources into manufacturing and product development.
