Panduit will lay off 162 employees at its DeKalb warehouse, a reduction from the previously announced 178. This action is part of a larger shift of warehouse operations from Illinois to Indiana. The company plans to support affected workers with opportunities at other facilities and outplacement services. Operations at the DeKalb warehouse will cease as part of this transition. A specific timeline for the closure of the DeKalb site has not yet been provided.
