“When the pandemic first arose, Bombardier Aviation responded quickly, suspending manufacturing operations to support local government efforts to slow the spread of the virus and to protect the health and safety of employees, partners and customers,” it said.
“Now with business jet deliveries, industry-wide, forecasted to be down approximately 30 per cent year-over-year due to the pandemic, Bombardier must adjust its operations and workforce to ensure that it emerges from the current crisis on solid footing.” The company said the majority of the cuts will impact its manufacturing operations in Canada and will take place progressively throughout the year.
Bombardier said its worldwide customer service operations have continued to operate largely uninterrupted throughout the pandemic. The company, once the world’s third-largest aircraft manufacturer with a range of jet and turboprop aircraft, has pinned its future on business jets.
They took a big gamble with the C Series passenger Jets now renamed the Airbus C220. The CRJ business went well, their only competition was from Embraer in Brazil.
This company is complicit in the destruction of our natural world and possibly the extinction of humanity. Unfortunate that people will loose their jobs but its probably for the best.
