Telecom network operator Nokia Siemens said on Tuesday it would cut 559 jobs in its home country Finland due to the closure of a factory as part of restructuring efforts. "There will be a reduction need of 559 employees in Finland in many activities, including 282 at the Espoo factory" near Helsinki in southern Finland, Riitta Mard, a spokeswoman for Nokia Siemens Networks, told AFP. "We concluded negotiations with the personnel today and the scope of that negotiation was the closing of a factory in Espoo," she said. "That closing will happen gradually between spring and summer 2009." The closures will bring the group's workforce in Finland to 7,500 and complete the restructuring of Finnish operations under a deal Nokia and Siemens made in 2007 to merge their network activities.  The group has also announced it will shed jobs in Germany, bringing its workforce there to about 10,000. Before the merger it employed 9,000 in Finland and 13,000 in Germany.
