Gary Mickelson Plants Quotations

Most Tyson plants are running regular shifts today, although there have been reports of higher than usual absenteeism at some locations. Virtually all of the company's poultry plants and a majority of our beef and pork plants are in operation today.

Some of our plants are not scheduled to operate Monday, due to multiple reasons including market conditions and the planned immigration rally.

Most of our plants will likely be in operation on Monday ... to meet the needs of our customers. A small percentage may not operate because of factors such as market conditions that permit scheduling changes and the potential shortage of workers.
