B-R-P Marine Group has announced it will lay-off 363 workers at its manufacturing plant in Sturtevant.
The Canadian-based company notified the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development by letter this week. B-R-P makes recreation vehicles and parts. It says it is re-evaluating its outboard engine manufacturing during the coronavirus pandemic.
The workers affected were making Evinrude outboard engines.
About half of the layoffs are permanent and the rest of the workers will be idled between now and January.
