Volkswagen cutting 50,000 more jobs in major restructuring

Volkswagen's board gave its approval on Thursday for a strategy to eliminate an additional 50,000 positions, reaching a total of 100,000 job reductions by the year 2030.

Volkswagen, which employs around 650,000 people, is experiencing a decline in sales and intense competition, particularly from Chinese brands.
