Eaton closing Jackson County facility
JACKSON COUNTY — It’s been rumored
since the new year began, but now
it’s official — Eaton Corporation is closing
up its Jackson County facilities.
According to a memo dated Feb. 2, the
Tennessee Department of Labor received
notice of a layoff affecting 93 employees,
effective March 26, 2016.
“This is really a big blow for us,” Jackson
County Mayor Bobby Kinnaird said.
“It’s 40 percent of our manufacturing
workforce.”
Employees were reportedly told in early
January that the plant would shut down
in the fourth quarter of 2016 and would
be moving operations overseas.
Kinnaird noted that he had known about
this for a year, saying that it wasn’t a
good sign that the company only signed
the lease for a year. There are two buildings
Eaton’s Jackson County plant operates
out of — one is owned by the
company and the other by the county’s
Industrial Development Board.
“It’s been in operation here for a number
of years,” Kinnaird said. “They have
some really good paying jobs, too.”
In looking at the fourth quarter operating
earnings, the hydraulics segment —
which is what the Jackson County facility
focused on — sales were down 18
percent from the fourth quarter of 2014.
The Jackson County facility manufactures
steel and brass fittings used in hydraulic
and fluid conveyance
applications.
“They can buy the parts cheaper than
they can make them,” Kinnaird said.
The company is also implementing the
second phase of a restructuring plan that
was announced in 2015.
Eaton is a power management company
with 2015 sales of $20.9 billion. It provides
energy-efficient solutions that help
customers effectively manage electrical,
hydraulic and mechanical power more
efficiently, safely and sustainably.
Worldwide, Eaton has approximately
97,000 employees and sells products to
customers in more than 175 countries.
Kinnaird is hoping another industry will
come in to fill the gap.
“A lot of these employees live here in
Jackson County,” he said. “They’d have
to travel out of county to find work.”
Messages left for media relations at
Eaton were not returned by press time.
Bastards!!
