The foil-rolling plant Rusal Armenal has started decreasing output capacities and transferring employees to part-time work.
The reason is the drop of demand for Armenal products because of the US sanctions against Rusal.
Armenal has 670 employees, by the end of September 184 of them will have been receiving only two third of salary due to compelled delays.
Armenal accounts for 5% of Armenia’s exports and more than half of exports to US. (Ukrainian metal)
