Embraer cuts 4,300 jobs

Embraer announced laying off nearly 4,300 workers as it slashed its 2009 delivery forecast by 28 aircraft, lowering revenue guidance for next year to $5.5 billion.

The job cuts amount to about 20% of the Brazilian commercial and business jet manufacturer's 21,362 employees. The layoffs will eliminate "one layer in the management structure" and be concentrated in production and administrative areas.
