Welders still in demand...

Monotech/PSP Industries is expanding its operations in this Northeast Mississippi county. The expansion is expected to create 100 new jobs according to a Mississipi Business Journal report. General manager Greg Venatta said that the jobs would service a TVA account.

Most of the new positions are welders and fitters. Monotech/PSP said it is committed to hiring Gulf Coast evacuees, and those with welding or fitting experience are welcome to apply.

Monotech/PSP currently employs 200 workers in approximately 400,000 square feet of industrial buildings near Yellow Creek Port north of Iuka.

This is a good thing for some people who can definitely use a break. I don't have a web link to the company's site, but if you're in the area, and you're interested, youcan apply for employment with the company at its location on Mississippi Highway 25 North at County Road 342 or at the local employment office.
