Automobil: Jaguar Land Rover muss sparen – 4.000 Stellen fallen weg
Europas Automobilindustrie stemmt sich gegen den Niedergang. Reformen sollen die Unternehmen wieder auf Kurs bringen. Nun kündigt auch der britische Autobauer heftige Einschnitte an.
British automobile manufacturer Jaguar Land Rover has announced a major cost-cutting package that will result in the loss of around 4,000 jobs over the next two years, according to the company. The British subsidiary of Indian carmaker Tata Motors will save approximately £1.7 billion (roughly €2 billion) through the measures, which primarily target research and development staff, as well as management personnel, according to British media reports.
Tata Motors announced the move as the automaker grapples with rising costs, declining sales, and increased competition, particularly from Chinese manufacturers. Jaguar Land Rover, known for its iconic grille design, and Land Rover were merged in 2013. The company employs around 43,000 people worldwide, with the majority in the UK.
Jaguar Land Rover CEO P.B. Balaji acknowledged the challenging nature of the news for affected employees, stating that the company is committed to supporting those impacted through an early retirement program.
