AstraZeneca Careers Fair, Södertalje, 12-13th September 2012
A couple of weeks back Liftstream wrote about the very considerable challenges facing the Merck Serono employees in Geneva as they move towards a full site-closure. Well, this past week, Liftstream has been in another country, Sweden, reacting to the AstraZeneca site closure in Södertalje. AstraZeneca had organised a career fair on September 12th and 13th 2012, for the employees at the site, so they could access a range of different employers and contacts who would help them plan their futures.
Merck Serono staff navigate new horizons
The proposal and counter proposals have been submitted and reviewed. The employee protests roll on, although partly muted by legal disputes and management negotiations. Now though, it is decided. The shutters will come down at Merck Serono in Geneva. An estimated workforce of 1250 people will be affected, their lives driven in new directions.
