CEO 'lays himself off' rather than fire more workers

*A real humility filled, ethical,humble and humane response, i really appreciate the CEO's thinking.But in this arcane materialistic world would it help in anyway in bettering the plight of the employees,no it wouldnt, the next ceo in-line would obviously fire the remaining employees. But he can steer clear of his own conscience and be mentally relieved.

and so i just remembered how apt this quote was  
Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy. 


The head of a manufacturing company in Örnsköldsvik in eastern Sweden decided he’d rather quit than lay off more employees.

Mats Melbin had already let 25 employees go from Örnalp Unozon in January when he learned that an additional 35 employees would likely have to lose their jobs in order to cut costs. 

The combined cuts would have cut the total number of employees at Örnalp Unozon in half. 

But Melbin had had enough after the first round of job cuts, and opted instead to tender his own resignation, reports the Örnsköldsviks Allehanda newspaper.

“He advocated for a reduction in employees’ working hours instead of giving them notice. He refused to fire any more people and carry out the decision of the parent company Vinovo,” said the union steward to the newspaper

The head of the Vinovo investment company, which owns 91 percent of Örnalp Unozon, said the decision resulted from a disagreement between Melbin and the company’s board.

“I’d like to express it as a problem of confidence due to a lack of consensus between the board and the CEO,” Vinovo chief David Malmström told Örnsköldsviks Allehanda.

Vinovo has already named a new CEO to take over operations at Örnalp Unozon.
