CHARLESTON, W.Va. — West Virginia Manufacturers Association President Rebecca McPhail issued the following statement on announced closure of Mylan Park facility:

“Our hearts go out to those workers who learned just today that their jobs will be ending next year. Any loss of manufacturing jobs in West Virginia is devastating, but the closure of the Mylan facility at Chestnut Ridge means losing some 1,500 jobs next year, and that is a crushing blow. We are encouraged the new owner of the Mylan plant, Viatris, has pledged to continue operating some of its other West Virginia facilities and preserving those jobs. The WVMA commits to work with local leaders, the Governor, Department of Commerce and any other stakeholders to bring new manufacturing investment and job opportunities and preserve our existing industrial base here in the Mountain State.”
