Kraśnik factory closure to affect 255 employees

The planned liquidation of a manufacturing plant in Kraśnik, Poland, is expected to impact approximately 255 employees. Workers were informed of the decision during a teleconference with company management on November 5.

Stanisław Szczygielski, chairman of the NSZZ Solidarność union at TN Polska, stated that the liquidation process could continue until September 2027. Local officials and union representatives are scheduled to begin discussions regarding severance packages and mutual termination agreements, with the first meeting set for November 12.

Krzysztof Staruch, the Mayor of Kraśnik, expressed deep concern over the mass layoffs, describing the situation as a “black hour” for the community. The Mayor noted that he learned of the group dismissals through the staff rather than the company board and has pledged to work with local labor offices and regional authorities to secure appropriate severance for the affected workers.
