Fleetguard Jobs Moving From Cookeville TN to Mexico


Posted on Sep 14, 2009

Fleetguard officials announced that 140 employees will lose their jobs due to three filter assembly lines being moved from the Cookeville facility to Mexico.  The jobs will be lost beginning in mid-November and lasting through mid-January. 

Fleetguard, a subsidiary of  Cummins Filtration is keeping silent as to the issues of severance packages and whether more job losses will follow.   Cookeville's Fleetguard plant currently employs around 700 people.  

IF YOU OR A FAMILY MEMBER HAVE HAD A PAST WORK RELATED INJURY IN WHICH WORKERS COMPENSATION WAS PAID,
YOU MAY BE DUE ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION.  

Tennessee Workers Compensation Laws provide that, if an employee receives a Workers Compensation settlement or judgment and the employer has returned the employee to work, the amount of the settlement or judgment is limited.  Thereafter, if the employee loses their job for any reason including PERMENANT JOB LOSS, the employee may be entitled to have the previous award enlarged.
