Stora Enso Plans to Make Organizational Changes in the Paper Division Following the Conversion of the Oulu Mill in 2020

General News

Stora Enso’s Paper division is planning to make organizational changes to improve competitiveness and ensure efficient customer service after the Oulu Mill conversion for production of kraftliner for packaging. The planned changes would primarily affect commercial functions and operations support. The planned changes could result in a reduction of a maximum of 135 employees in the Paper division by the end of 2020.

The new organizational set-up is expected to be complete in the first quarter of 2021. The transition to the new organization will take place in phases to ensure good customer service.

No decisions regarding the planned changes will be taken, nor will there be any redundancies until the appropriate co-determination negotiations have been concluded.
