Deere Recalls Employees Back To Work In Iowa, Kansas
John Deere announced that in mid-April it was recalling nearly 50 employees back to work by the end of April across its Dubuque Works and Davenport Works facilities in Iowa and Coffeyville Works in Kansas. The company said these callbacks support growing production needs in construction, forestry and drivetrain component operations.
Earlier this year, John Deere announced multiple rounds of employee callbacks at several U.S. manufacturing facilities, which are indicative of improving market conditions and increased production demand across several Deere product lines. According to a press release, approximately 324 U.S. employees have returned to work at John Deere since January.
