The reason for the forced measure was the difficult situation at the plant caused by the lack of government orders. In addition, the company is experiencing a shortage of components. Wage arrears reached 80 million hryvnia. On January 21, a mass strike took place at Yuzhmash.
"Southern Machine-Building Plant" is a leading Ukrainian enterprise in the rocket and space industry. Various vehicles are also produced here - from tractors to trolleybuses.
In the past, the company's staff numbered about 50 thousand people; at the moment, only a fifth of them remain. "Yuzhmash" is one of the largest enterprises in Dnepropetrovsk.
