FIS to close Brown Deer business unit, lay off 32

Jacksonville, Fla.-based FIS plans to close its print and mail business unit in Brown Deer and lay off 32 workers there.

The Brown Deer location is at 4900 W. Brown Deer Road. The company will consolidate its operations within other FIS facilities, according to a WARN notice filed with the state.

Layoffs will begin on Oct. 27 and will happen in phases until the work has been transferred, ending around March 31, 2015.

Affected employees were notified last week. There are 25 hourly and seven salaried positions impacted by the closure, including mail processing clerks, operations analysts and print and insert operators.

None of the employees will have bumping rights. They will be paid all earned wages and agreed upon benefits, as well as severance payments.

FIS, which was formed when Fidelity National Information Services Inc. acquired Brown Deer-based Metavante Technologies Inc. in 2009, is one of the world’s largest providers of banking and payment technologies. It serves more than 14,000 financial institutions and businesses in more than 100 countries.
