Motorola raises lay-off packages

MOST of the laid-off employees of Motorola Mobility's Beijing branch agreed to sign labor termination agreements before yesterday's deadline after the company agreed to boost their compensation, the company's China PR manager said.

Motorola raised their compensation after over 100 employees protested against the massive layoff - which may affect 700 people - outside its Beijing headquarters on Friday.

The job cuts in Beijing follow Motorola Mobility's disclosure last week that it will slash nearly 4,000 jobs this year, or 20 percent of its global workforce.

The protestors said the firm did not negotiate with them before making the decision and demanded to be heard.

Under the revised deal, workers will get a housing allowance up until their last day at Motorola, as well as cash remitted for untaken statutory annual leave, said Kevin Si, the company's China PR manager.
