Slot machine maker IGT laying off 161 workers
Text Size 
RENO, Nev. - Slot machine maker International Game Technology says it's laying off another 55 workers at its Reno headquarters.
Company spokeswoman Ed Rogich says the Reno layoffs account for about one-third of the 161 layoffs the company announced on Thursday in its domestic and international work force.
IGT reduced its work force by 300 in Reno and 500 globally last November. In January it cut 200 more positions, mostly in Reno.
The company is one of the largest private employers in Washoe County.
Rogich says the company is continuing to look for opportunities to be more efficient, but would not address the possibility of more layoffs.
