Haworth Inc. has more than 2,800 workers in Michigan and employs almost 8,000 workers world-wide.

Julie Smith, a spokesperson for Haworth, said the actions were a necessary response to current market conditions as well as part of their preparation for what is expected to be a slow year ahead.

Haworth is the second major furniture maker to announce job cuts in the area. Herman Miller had already cut out about 150 jobs in recent months.
