NEW YORK -- Nissan Motor is offering buyouts to workers at three U.S. factories, Nikkei has learned, as part of the Japanese automaker's plans to cut production in the country by around 25% amid sluggish sales.
Employees at vehicle assembly plants in Smyrna, Tennessee, and Canton, Mississippi, as well as an engine plant in Decherd, Tennessee, were recently notified of the plan. The buyouts, set to begin in March, will apply to hourly employees.
