Another Detroit Three automaker has announced workforce reduction plans amid transformations toward cleaner, more technology-packed vehicles.
Jeep maker Stellantis NV on Friday said it has offered certain salaried U.S. employees a voluntary separation package as a part of its "transformation to become a sustainable tech mobility company and the market leader in low-emissions vehicles," spokeswoman Jodi Tinson said in a statement. The company didn't characterize who received the offers.
Tinson added that the employees have been offered a "favorable package of benefits that otherwise would not be available to them." The automaker said it isn't providing further details at this time, including how many of its 13,000 U.S. salaried employees received the offer. The deadline to accept is Dec. 5.
