Dell said it will close a North Carolina desktop computer manufacturing plant early next year, laying off 905 workers, as the world's No. 2 PC maker continues to shed jobs and streamline its business as its copes with declining sales and market share.
Dell's 60% revenue comes from PCs, which have been severely impacted by the global economic downturn. The closure of the Winston-Salem facility is expected to be completed in January, Dell said on Wednesday. About 600 of the affected employees are expected to be laid off next month.
Dell had around 76,500 regular employees as of January 30, down from 82,700 a year earlier.
