EAST HARTFORD, CT (WFSB) -
There is a possibility of additional layoffs at Pratt & Whitney.
A spokesperson at Pratt & Whitney told Eyewitness News an email went out to salaried employees about a buyout offer.
The letter said there will be a new round of buyouts, which would precede another round of layoffs.
"During the past few years, we have implemented several initiatives targeted at reducing our operating costs while ensuring a strong future for the company, our employees, customers and shareowners," the company said in a statement.
The company said several hundred people may take buyouts, which include a severance package for those employees eligible.
"The program contributes to the company's overall cost reduction initiatives," the company said in a statement. "Efforts like this, allow P&W to remain competitive and position our company for long-term growth."
It's unclear where the cuts would be made.
