Delphi closes Mich. facility
DETROIT -- The closing of a Delphi Corp. factory in Michigan places the world's largest auto supplier on track to meet a goal of reducing its U.S. hourly work force by up to 6,000 by year's end, the company said Monday.
Delphi said it had ceased production at its Flint West facility, and as of last week all 450 remaining workers had chosen options such as retirement or transfers to other jobs.
Delphi said the Flint West closing was the largest of four planned U.S. consolidations this year. Delphi also has closed five non-U.S. facilities this year.
