Nokia scales down R&D operations in Finland

Nokia is to scale down its R&D operations in Finland as it continues to respond to weakening global demand for its handsets. Approximately 320 jobs will be lost at its mobile devices site in Jyväskylä - which will be closed down altogether - while another plant in Salo will see temporary lay-offs.

In Salo, Nokia will scale down production to reflect market demand, temporarily laying off 20 to 30 per cent of the 2,500 employees there in stages on a rotational basis.
