SALEM — A strike at the American Standard plant in Salem has caused the company to move production of some bathtubs to another plant.
The company said Wednesday that between 20 and 30 jobs will be eliminated from the local plant permanently. Bathtub molds were moved from the plant.
Keeping a supply of products to customers is critical, and the line being moved is high-volume sales item, the company said.
