BERWYN, PATyco Electronics Ltd. is eliminating about 100 North American jobs, about half from two Pennsylvania facilities.
 
The firm cites diminished demand from the automotive and consumer appliance industries.
 
Workers from facilities in North Carolina, Michigan, Mexico and Canada also will be affected, said Tyco spokesman Mike Ratcliff, according to published reports.
 
The company plans to move some manufacturing from Harrisburg, PA to nearby Waynesboro, as well as Mount Sidney, VA.
 
The firm employs 92,000 globally and makes electrical components and telecommunications equipment.
