CareFusion lays off 128 in California

CareFusion lays off 128 in CaliforniaBecton Dickinson (NYSE:BDX) subsidiary CareFusion is laying off workers in California, according to a Worker Adjustment & Retraining Notification Act notice.

CareFusion, which this month landed a $100 million contract with the U.S. Defense Dept. to develop an automated drug dispensing system, will cut 128 jobs, according to the October notice.

Earlier this year, the FDA issued a Class I recall of select models of CareFusion’s AVEA Ventilators due to electrical issues that could have caused unexpected shutdowns.

The recall affected a total of 501 units distributed in the U.S., with multiple AVEA models and product numbers referenced by the FDA.

Becton Dickinson acquired CareFusion in March 2015 for $12.2 billion . 1 year later, the company sold CareFusion’s vertebral compression fracture portfolio to Stryker (NYSE:SYK) for an undisclosed amount in an all-cash transaction.
