Manufacturer cutting jobs

Kerr-McGee Corp. said it plans to cut 7 percent to 9 percent of its 3,200 non-union U.S. employees, adding that the company would have no specific plans on where the cuts would be made until the end of the year.

Kerr-McGee currently has about 45 employees at its Henderson plant. The company placed 85 local employees on furlough in August.

The cuts are expected to produce $30 million in annual savings companywide.
