▼ 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.

Looking through other posts here the consistency is what makes the site valuable rather than any single piece, and a stop at <a href="http://quickridgecommercegallery.shop" />quickridgecommercegallery</a> extended that consistency observation, sites whose value lies in the ongoing pattern rather than in standout posts are sites I trust more deeply and this one has clearly built that kind of trust.
Thank you for keeping the writing honest and the points easy to verify against your own experience, and a stop at <a href="http://daisyharborcommercegallery.shop" />daisyharborcommercegallery</a> reflected the same approach, no exaggeration just steady useful content that I can take with me into my own work without second guessing every sentence I happen to read here.
Generally I am cautious about recommending sites on first encounter but this one warrants the exception, and a look at <a href="http://mintorchardartisanexchange.shop" />mintorchardartisanexchange</a> reinforced the exception making, the rare site that justifies breaking my normal cautious approach is the rare site worth flagging early and this one has prompted exactly that early flagging response from me.
Now appreciating that the post did not try to imitate any other style I might recognise, and a stop at <a href="http://amberwillowmarketplace.shop" />amberwillowmarketplace</a> continued that distinct voice, content with its own register rather than borrowed from elsewhere is content with real authorial presence and this site has clearly developed that presence through what feels like patient editorial work.
Picked something concrete from the post that I will use immediately, and a look at <a href="http://brightharborartisanmarketplace.shop" />brightharborartisanmarketplace</a> added another concrete piece, content that produces immediately useful output rather than just abstract appreciation is content that earns its place in my regular rotation without needing any further evaluation from me at this point honestly.
Felt the writer respected the topic without being precious about it, and a look at <a href="http://coppercovecraftcollective.shop" />coppercovecraftcollective</a> continued that respectful but unfussy treatment, finding the right register for serious topics is hard and this site has clearly figured out how to take the topic seriously while still being readable for casual visitors regularly.
Now appreciating the way the post avoided the temptation to be longer than necessary, and a look at <a href="http://velvetgrovevendorcollective.shop" />velvetgrovevendorcollective</a> continued that lean approach, content with the discipline to stop when finished rather than padding for length is content that respects both itself and its readers and this site has that disciplined editorial culture clearly throughout.
Now appreciating that the post did not require me to agree with the writer to find it valuable, and a look at <a href="http://kettlecrestartisanexchange.shop" />kettlecrestartisanexchange</a> maintained the same useful regardless of agreement quality, content that informs even when it does not convince is content with broader utility and this site reads as useful even when I disagree.
Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sensible take on this topic without the usual marketing nonsense, and a look at <a href="http://gingerwoodcommercehub.shop" />gingerwoodcommercehub</a> kept that grounded approach going, sites that stay focused on serving readers rather than monetising every click are rare and this is clearly one of those rare ones I really appreciate finding.
Big thanks to whoever wrote this, you saved me a lot of time hunting for the same info on other sites, and a stop at <a href="http://iciclebrooktradingfoundry.shop" />iciclebrooktradingfoundry</a> only added more useful detail without going off topic, that kind of focus is honestly hard to come across these days when most posts wander everywhere.
Skipped the social share buttons but might come back to actually use one later, and a stop at <a href="http://quickharbormerchantgallery.shop" />quickharbormerchantgallery</a> extended that share urge, content that triggers genuine sharing impulses rather than performative ones is content that has actually moved me and not many posts in a typical week do that for me actually.
Now planning to share the link with a small group of readers I trust, and a look at <a href="http://meadowharborcraftcollective.shop" />meadowharborcraftcollective</a> suggested more material to share with the same group, recommending content into a curated circle requires confidence in the recommendation and this site is making me confident in those personal recommendations on multiple separate occasions now.
Reading this with a notebook open turned out to be the right move, and a stop at <a href="http://driftorchardretailcollective.shop" />driftorchardretailcollective</a> added more material to the notes, content that justifies active note taking from a passive reader is content with real informational density and this site is producing notes worthy material at a high rate consistently.
One of the more honest takes on the topic I have seen lately, no spin and no oversell, and a stop at <a href="http://dawntrailgoodsatelier.shop" />dawntrailgoodsatelier</a> kept that going, the kind of voice the open web could use a lot more of rather than the endless echo chamber of recycled opinions floating around every social platform these days.
Skipped past the first paragraph thinking it was setup and had to come back when the rest referenced it, and a stop at <a href="http://junipercovecraftcollective.shop" />junipercovecraftcollective</a> similarly rewarded careful reading from the start, content where every paragraph carries weight is content I now know to read from the beginning rather than skipping ahead.
