The largest employer in Warren County is reducing its workforce.Yorozu has opened a new plant in Alabama, a plant which is easing the workload demands of the Yorozu facility in Morrison, which employed more than 1,900 at its peak.Yorozu’s workforce in Warren County is projected to stabilize around 1,200 employees. Yorozu America president Jack Phillips says the current workforce is around 1,600.“Based on our current attrition numbers, there shouldn’t be a layoff situation,” said Phillips.Opening the Alabama plant has been a four-year process for the tier 1 automotive supplier. Stamping began in January, while assembly and painting started in July.Phillips emphasized there are no plans to close the Yorozu facility in Warren County, which has been operating for years beyond its intended capacity.“As long as Nissan is making vehicles in Smyrna, this plant will be here,” said Phillips.The plant in Morrison, known as Yorozu Automotive Tennessee or YAT, could not meet the volume needs of customers in the coming years, according to Phillips.
