A sluggish economy is being blamed for Goodyear's decision to lay off its first workers at its Gadsden plant in 14 years. The layoffs actually happened in November, but the company didn't confirm them until this week. Fifty-three people were laid off and another 48 positions were eliminated through attrition.
Last fall, the plant shut down temporarily. Company officials stress these were the first layoffs since 1999. That was when corporate officials decided to close the plant but later changed their minds.
