Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Ford, one of the major auto manufacturers in the US, announced plans to lay off 3,000 of its staff globally, mostly in North America and India.<\/p>\n

In an internal email sent to employees, the company said the decision followed significant restructuring in Ford operations outside North America over the past couple of years.<\/p>\n

It was stated that the company’s cost structure was not competitive against other traditional and new actors in the sector.<\/p>\n

“Building this future requires changing and reshaping nearly every aspect of the way we have operated for more than a century,” it said, adding that resources had been rearranged as the company changed the way it worked while adopting new technologies.<\/p>\n

Most of the cuts will be in the US and Canada, along with employees of Ford Business Services in India.<\/p>\n

Following the move, Ford’s shares lost nearly 5% on the New York stock exchange.<\/p>\n

The auto maker announced in March that it plans to produce more than 2 million electric vehicles per year by 2026, and that it split its operations into “Ford Model e” and “Ford Blue” to accelerate its electric vehicle work.<\/p>\n
