Georgia-Pacific will begin temporary layoffs at its Monticello mill May 18, though plant officials won’t know how many of the 415 employees will be affected until next week.
“Georgia-Pacific does not discuss business plans or production schedules. We can, however, share that we have made the decision to scale back production temporarily at our Monticello mill to better meet current lower demand conditions,” GP Monticello Public Affairs Manager Jessica Breazeale said in an emailed statement. “As a result, we will have some temporary layoffs. We are working with our union representatives and employees in an effort to minimize the impact.”
