Utah-based Nu Skin Enterprises announced employee layoffs as part of a restructuring effort, while Tyson Foods confirmed the closure of its Eagle Mountain beef processing facility, eliminating hundreds of jobs in the region. Both moves reflect broader economic pressures on Utah businesses.

Nu Skin, a multilevel marketing company founded by Latter-day Saints and long associated with Utah's MLM industry, has faced declining sales and regulatory scrutiny in recent years. The layoffs are part of a cost-cutting initiative aimed at stabilizing the company's financial performance.

Tyson's closure of the Eagle Mountain plant, which opened in 2022, comes amid shifts in the beef processing industry and changing consumer demand. The plant employed several hundred workers, and its closure is a significant blow to the local economy in one of Utah's fastest-growing areas.
