DUBUQUE - Ninety people in Dubuque are out of work after managers at Eagle Window and Door cut their jobs.

As workers arriving at the plant Wednesday morning were notified of the plant-wide cuts for the first time.

The cuts were based on seniority and are effective immediately.

CEO Dave Beeken says the struggling housing market forced the manufacturer to reduce its workforce.

Beeken says Eagle Window and Door has not cut this many jobs in at least 15 years.
