The U.S. division of Siemens Healthcare will lay off 3% of its sales and service staff, the company announced this week.
The cuts are a result of the current economic environment in the U.S. and will impact certain sales, general, and administrative (SG&A) roles, according to the Malvern, PA-based vendor. Siemens said it would offer affected employees a severance program, as well as career planning, placement, and counseling services.
Siemens said the announcement would not impact its U.S. operations and business goals, and that it remains committed to its customers.
