Tata Motors-owned luxury car company Jaguar Land Rover JLR is starting voluntary layoffs. British media reported on Saturday that this could result in job losses of around 4,000 employees. According to the report of 'The Times', the luxury car company is likely to make a formal announcement about this on Monday.
What exactly is the purpose of the company?
According to a report in UK newspaper 'The Times', the layoff plan is part of JLR's efforts to save around 1.7 billion Euros (Rs 21,700 crore). The company also aims to simplify its business model and reduce its break-even point to 3,00,000 vehicles annually, the point at which costs and revenues equalize. This means that the company now plans to make a profit even by selling fewer vehicles.
What will be the impact on employees?
JLR has over 33,000 direct employees in the UK and employs a further 120,000 through its supply chain. The company clarified that the layoffs will not affect hourly assembly line workers at the factories. The focus of the company is to focus on more relaxed and flexible management. This will also reduce annual expenses like salaries and office maintenance. So, even if demand for its vehicles falls due to a global recession or US tariffs, the company will recover its costs by selling fewer vehicles per year.
Effect of US tariffs
America is JLR's largest global market with 29% market share. JLR's profits and sales have been directly impacted by US President Donald Trump's announcement of a new import duty of 10% on imports of British-made passenger vehicles. As per the agreement between the US and the UK, a 10% discount tariff is applicable on the first 100,000 vehicles per year. However, once this quota is exceeded, British cars are subject to a hefty tax of 27.5%, making exports challenging.
Moreover, one of JLR's most popular SUVs, the Defender, is manufactured in Slovakia, i.e. in Europe. However, as the country is not part of the European Union, this model does not benefit from the 10% discount quota of the US-UK treaty, further adding to the challenges faced by the company.
