EDS lays off workers
Electronic Data Systems said it plans to layoff about 50 mostly clerical workers at its facility at 725 Regional Rd.
The layoffs should start in mid-December. We'll post more as we find out the reason behind it.
Update: This won't make into the paper tomorrow because we received the info post deadline. But the reason for the layoffs is that the company is getting out of the reverse mortgage lending business.
About 70 employees will remain at the office. About 1300 employees work for EDS across the state.
