    "excerpt": "The laboratories responsible for providing support to biological cell banks, analytical testing, and technical development activities are to be moved by the end of 2028 from the Petit-Bâle district to the Novartis campus. The latter plans to transform its Rhine campus into a center for biological treatments, the group specified in a press release. This new restructuring of Novartis' activities in Switzerland comes nine months after the announcement of the last wave of job cuts, Unia notes in a statement. The union emphasizes that the multinational has thus eliminated nearly 3000 jobs in Switzerland since 2018 and is concerned about a questioning of production in the country by the group's management. The employee defense organization also calls for political awareness, considering that a company benefiting from advantageous tax conditions and the quality of Swiss infrastructure should in return be required to invest in research, development, and production in Switzerland.
