Journal Article · · Chemical Week
OSTI ID:508616

About 20% of Nalco Chemical`s (Naperville, IL) workforce-about 900 employees-will be affected by the company`s restructuring moves; they are to be transferred to a new 50-50 energy chemicals joint venture with Exxon. Four hundred employees worldwide-the majority in Europe-will receive severance packages. Among other consolidations, European support functions will be unified. A plant on Chicago`s South Side will be shut, with production shifted to the nearby Bedford Park plant, Nalco`s largest. Some foreign manufacturing operations will also be affected. The company will take a $54-million after-tax charge to cover the restructuring and the charges associated with forming the joint venture.
