▼ 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.

Time spent here today felt productive in the way that good reading sessions sometimes do, and a stop at <a href="http://gingerwoodcraftexchange.shop" />gingerwoodcraftexchange</a> extended that productive feeling across the rest of the morning, the difference between productive reading and merely passing time is real and this site is consistently on the productive side for me lately.
Honest assessment after reading this twice is that it holds up under careful attention, and a look at <a href="http://apricotharborcommercegallery.shop" />apricotharborcommercegallery</a> extended that durability across more pages, content that survives a second read without revealing weak spots is rarer than the average reader probably realises and this site clearly cleared that bar.
Following the post through to the end without my attention drifting once, and a look at <a href="http://timbertrailcommercegallery.shop" />timbertrailcommercegallery</a> earned the same uninterrupted attention, content that holds attention without manipulating it is content with substantive pull and this site has demonstrated that substantive pull across multiple pieces in a single reading session reliably here today.
If I had to summarise the editorial sensibility of this site in a few words it would be careful and human, and a look at <a href="http://gildedcoveretaildistrict.shop" />gildedcoveretaildistrict</a> extended that summary feeling, capturing the essence of a sites approach in brief is hard but this site has a clear enough identity that the summary comes naturally enough.

Picked up two new ideas that I expect will come up in conversations this week, and a look at <a href="http://amberharbormerchantgallery.shop" />amberharbormerchantgallery</a> added another, content that arms me with talking points rather than just filling time is the kind that provides ongoing value beyond the moment of reading and this site is generating that kind of ongoing value.
Reading this gave me a quiet moment of intellectual pleasure that I had not been expecting, and a stop at <a href="http://bayharbormerchantgallery.shop" />bayharbormerchantgallery</a> extended that pleasure across more pages, the unexpected reward of stumbling into careful writing is one of the small ongoing pleasures of reading the open web and this site is delivering it reliably.
Quietly impressive in a way that does not announce itself, and a stop at <a href="http://fernharborcommercegallery.shop" />fernharborcommercegallery</a> extended that quiet impressiveness, the kind of quality that emerges through sustained attention rather than first impressions is the kind I trust more deeply and this site has been earning that deeper trust across multiple sessions over time consistently.
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://linenmeadowcommercehub.shop" />linenmeadowcommercehub</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.
Came in tired from a long day and the writing held my attention anyway, and a stop at <a href="http://rainharborvendorparlor.shop" />rainharborvendorparlor</a> kept that going, content that can engage a fatigued reader is doing something right because most online reading happens in suboptimal conditions like that one and quality content adapts to it without complaint.
Easy to recommend without reservations, the site delivers on every promise it implicitly makes, and a look at <a href="http://oliveorchardgoodsgallery.shop" />oliveorchardgoodsgallery</a> kept that same standard going, the kind of consistency that earns trust over time rather than chasing it through aggressive marketing is what I see here and it is appreciated greatly by this particular reader today.
Now appreciating that the post left me with enough to say in a follow up conversation, and a look at <a href="http://hazelharbormerchantgallery.shop" />hazelharbormerchantgallery</a> added more material for those follow ups, content that prepares me for related conversations rather than just informing me alone is content with social utility and this site provides that social armament reliably for me.
Thanks for the readable length, I finished it without checking how much was left, and a stop at <a href="http://lavenderharborcraftcollective.shop" />lavenderharborcraftcollective</a> kept me reading the same way, when I stop noticing the length of a piece because the content is engaging enough to sustain attention without willpower the writer has done their job well today.
Reading this in my last reading slot of the day was a good way to end, and a stop at <a href="http://autumnmeadowcraftexchange.shop" />autumnmeadowcraftexchange</a> provided a satisfying close to the reading session, content that ends a day well rather than agitating it before sleep is the kind I value increasingly and this site fits that role for me consistently now.
Now considering writing a longer note about the post somewhere, and a look at <a href="http://bayharborartisanemporium.shop" />bayharborartisanemporium</a> added more material for that note, content that prompts me to write rather than just consume is content with generative energy and this site is producing that generative effect for me at a higher rate than most sources.
