NEW YORK—Avon Products says by 2013 it will eliminate about 1,200 positions—including about 600 in Ohio—as part of its restructuring efforts. The cosmetics company says the cutbacks will include the closing of a plant and a product-returns facility in the Cincinnati suburb of Springdale by mid-2012. Avon spokeswoman Jennifer Vargas says 590 workers will be affected. Vargas says Avon will continue to employ around 350 people at a call center in the Cincinnati area. The New York-based company says the restructuring program, which was announced in February, will help trim costs and improve efficiency. Avon expects to be saving $200 million a year by 2012.
