Gorenje, the Chinese-owned household appliances maker, has hired around 800 extra staff since mid-August to meet an increase in orders, and is planning to open 300 more jobs by the end of the year.
The company said part of the expansion was to replace existing staff who are being moved to a facility manufacturing TV sets, to be launched in January. The company said the newly employed are not agency workers. Hisense Europe companies in Slovenia currently employ 5,800 workers.
