Robins Air Force Base says more than 1,200 employees have applied for voluntary early retirement and voluntary separation incentives.

Chrissy Miner with Robins Air Force Base says the application window for the second round of incentives closed on Sunday. She says the base began making offers to employees on Wednesday.

Miner says some of the offers are tied to Air Force reductions but other offers may go to as many as 540 employees as part of changes in the Fiscal Year 2012 depot maintenance workload, which includes workers in the 402nd Maintenance Wing.

Miner says those who accept the offer must retire or leave on April 30, 2012.
