Finland's Meyer Turku shipyard has confirmed it will lay off 166 workers permanently as the pandemic hits cruiseship orders.
It has concluded the first part of talks over the redundancies, leaving 86 production staff and 80 office employees without jobs.
"Due to the production schedules of the shipyard, the negotiations concerning outfitting, design and HR functions will continue and will be finished during this year," the German-owned company said.
