Singapore – EMS provider Flextronics will hire more than 1,000 workers at its plant in northeast Hungary starting in September. Miklós Temesfalvi, deputy head of the local labor center, announced the hires in an interview with the Budapest Business Journal last week.
 
Temesfalvi said that the number may include a number of rehires. In February, the company announced plans to lay off 950 workers, but only 300 actually left. The plant currently has 1,100 employees.
 
Flextronics explained the earlier layoffs citing the seasonal nature of the products it makes, as well as differences in the size and number of its orders.
