Vienna-- 65 Tyson Food employees in South Georgia are out of a job. But it probably won't be for long.

The Vienna Plant is installing automated deboning equipment this month--so they won't need those positions. However, the people have been put on a recall list. Turnover at the poultry plant is high, therefore management does not think it will be long before those people can be rehired.

Still, the Department of Labor is assisting those employees to find jobs elsewhere.
