DETROIT (AP) — Stellantis said Monday it will offer buyout or early retirement packages to about 6,400 nonunion U.S. salaried employees as the auto industry faces what the company is calling challenging market conditions.
Stellantis said it has about 12,700 U.S. salaried workers who are not union members.
Stellantis made buyout offers to groups of white-collar and unionized employees in the U.S. and Canada in April.
It was hoping to cut the hourly workforce by about 3,500 people but wouldn't say how many salaried workers it was targeting.
But it said a 44-day strike by the United Auto Workers union this fall cost it $795 million (750 million euros).
