Ford Motor Co. is planning to cut several thousand white-collar workers as it looks to trim costs to position the company for a long-range transition to electric vehicles, according to people familiar with the matter.
The auto maker in coming weeks is expected to disclose plans to eliminate more than 4,000 jobs, the people said. The cuts would mostly come from the Dearborn, Mich.-based auto maker’s North American salaried ranks and aren’t expected to include factory workers, the people said.
