Staffing
In May 2011, Sperry Marine announced it would lay 60 people off.[2] The move is part of a larger Northrup Grumman effort to reduce its workforce by 500 people. After the terminations, it is estimated 725 people will still be employed at the plant. [2] In June 2010, 26 people were laid off. [2] The lay-offs continued in early December 2011 when it was announced that the company would close its Charlottesville-based North American headquarters, resulting in 37 additional job losses. [3]
