John Deere Bringing Back Nearly 100 Laid-Off Workers


Listen Later

John Deere announced that it would recall 99 laid-off employees to its facilities in eastern Iowa. The workers will report to the machinery manufacturer’s Davenport and Dubuque Works sites starting in mid-February.


The decision came one day after President Donald Trump announced in Clive, Iowa, that John Deere planned to establish a parts distribution center near Hebron, Indiana, and add an excavator factory to its campus in Kernersville, North Carolina. Scheduled to open next year, the company expects the projects to create hundreds of jobs.
