By: Web Staff

MASSENA, NY-- Alcoa is cutting jobs at its Massena locations.
Alcoa spokesperson Kevin Lowery tells News 10 Now that as many as 35 hourly and 15 salaried workers at Alcoa's West plant and 25 hourly and 20 salaried workers at the East plant could be layed-off.

Lowry cites falling aluminum prices as the reason for the layoffs. He says fewer than 100 people total at both plants will be affected.
Layoffs will happen over the next 12 months.
