Sony Belgium to cut 55 jobs
Sony Europe Belgium will cut approximately 55 jobs at their plant in Zavantem, according to a local news report.
Belgium website, lesoir.be, reports that 55 jobs at the plant, which hires 340 people, will likely go as consultation begins this week.
A spokesman for the company did not provide specific details on which departments would be affected.
The cuts arrive after Sony announced earlier this month that a total of 10,000 jobs would go as part of a major company restructure.
