▼ Honda, Nissan Furlough U.S. Workers As Auto Demand Plummets

  • Category:Other

TOKYO/WASHINGTON (Reuters) — Honda Motor Co. and Nissan Motor Co. on Tuesday said they had furloughed thousands of workers at their U.S. operations as the coronavirus pandemic slashes demand for cars in the country.

A spokesman for Honda, which employs about 18,400 workers at plants in Alabama, Indiana and Ohio, said the Japanese automaker would guarantee salaries through Sunday, having suspended operations on March 23. The plants will be closed through May 1.

Nissan said it was temporarily laying off about 10,000 U.S. hourly workers effective April 6. It has suspended operations at its U.S. manufacturing facilities through late April due to the impact of the outbreak.

Operations at Honda’s Powersports plant in South Carolina, which makes all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), have been suspended since March 26.

Automakers are facing a dramatic drop in sales in the United States, the world’s second-largest car market, after some states barred dealers from selling new cars while “stay-at-home” orders are in place. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV on Monday extended its shutdown of U.S. and Canadian plants until May 4.

Toyota Motor Corp has halted its U.S. and Canadian production through April 17. A Toyota spokesman said it has not furloughed full-time U.S. employees.

Reading this on a long flight and finding it the best thing I read across hours of trying, and a stop at <a href="http://silversproutstore.shop" />silversproutstore</a> kept the streak going, when content beats long flight reading you know it has substance because flight reading is a hard test of a piece given the alternatives available everywhere.
Even on a quick first read the substance of the post comes through, and a look at <a href="http://urbanpinebazaar.shop" />urbanpinebazaar</a> reinforced that immediate quality, content that does not require a slow careful read to demonstrate value but rewards one anyway is content with real depth and this site has produced work of that demanding depth class.
Worth observing that the post landed without needing a flashy headline to hook attention, and a stop at <a href="http://amberfernstore.shop" />amberfernstore</a> did the same, content that earns engagement through substance rather than packaging is the kind I trust more deeply and this site has clearly chosen substance as the primary lever for reader engagement throughout.
A relief to read something where I did not have to fact check every claim mentally, and a look at <a href="http://blossomhollowstore.shop" />blossomhollowstore</a> continued that reliable feeling, sites where I can lower my guard and trust the content are rare and this one is earning that trust paragraph by paragraph through consistent careful work behind the scenes.
Really appreciate that the writer did not assume I would read every other related post first, and a look at <a href="http://frostshoregoods.shop" />frostshoregoods</a> kept that self contained feel going where each piece can stand alone, accessibility for new readers is a sign of generous editorial thinking and this site has clearly invested in that approach.
Now feeling mildly impressed in a way I do not quite remember feeling about a blog in a while, and a stop at <a href="http://twilightfernstore.shop" />twilightfernstore</a> extended that mild impression, content that produces specific positive emotional responses rather than just neutral information transfer is content with extra dimensions and this site has those extra dimensions clearly.
Quietly the post solved something I had been turning over without quite knowing how to phrase the question, and a look at <a href="http://cloudpetalstore.shop" />cloudpetalstore</a> extended that quiet solving, content that addresses unformulated needs is content with reader insight and this site has demonstrated that insight at a high rate across the pieces I have read recently.
Liked the way the post got out of its own way, and a stop at <a href="http://cloudlaneessentials.shop" />cloudlaneessentials</a> extended that invisible craft, the best writing you barely notice while reading because it is doing its work without drawing attention to itself and this site has clearly mastered that disappearing act across the pieces I have read.
Reading this triggered a small change in how I think about the topic going forward, and a stop at <a href="http://cloudpetalmarket.shop" />cloudpetalmarket</a> reinforced that subtle shift, the rare content that actually moves my thinking rather than just confirming or filling it is the kind I most value and this site is providing that kind of impact today.
Speaking from the perspective of a fairly demanding reader the writing here clears the bar consistently, and a look at <a href="http://frostgrovecrafts.shop" />frostgrovecrafts</a> continued clearing that bar, the calibration of demanding reader is something I apply to all sources and this site has been one of the few that handles the demanding reading well across pieces sampled.
