Another Valley business says it's going to have to lay off some of its employees due to the economy.  Up to 90 employees at American Standard in Salem will be out of a job this coming Monday.

The company, which manufactures kitchen and bath products, says it has to make the cuts because of slow sales and a large inventory.

Most of the company's 340 union members returned in late November after spending five weeks on the picket line.  They agreed to work under American Standard's last contract offer which included a five percent pay cut.
