Lockheed to Furlough 3,000 Workers on Shutdown
Lockheed Martin Corp. (LMT), the biggest U.S. defense contractor, said it was ready to furlough 3,000 employees on Oct. 7 because of the partial government shutdown.
Boeing “is seeing increasing effects on certain daily operations that involve U.S. government facilities and people,” Dan Beck, a company spokesman, said by e-mail.
“We expect more consequences could emerge in the coming days, including limited furloughs of employees in some areas,” Beck said. The Chicago-based defense and aerospace company won $30.3 billion in contracts in fiscal 2012, the BGOV study shows.
