John Deere recalls 50 workers across Midwest plants to support production growth
(UI) - John Deere is recalling nearly 50 employees across manufacturing facilities in Iowa and Kansas as demand for construction, forestry and drivetrain equipment continues to strengthen.
The latest round of callbacks includes workers returning to Dubuque Works and Davenport Works in Iowa, as well as Coffeyville Works in Kansas, to support fabrication, assembly and material handling operations. The employees are expected to return to work in April.
The move follows multiple rounds of workforce recalls earlier this year, bringing the total number of U.S. employees returning to John Deere facilities to more than 300 since January.
The increase in staffing reflects improving market conditions and rising production demand across key equipment segments tied to infrastructure development and industrial activity.
John Deere’s Dubuque and Davenport facilities manufacture a range of construction and forestry equipment, while Coffeyville supports drivetrain and power system component production used across the company’s equipment portfolio.
The company said the additional workforce will help meet growing production needs as equipment demand continues to recover.
