According to a media report, Jaguar Land Rover will announce plans to cut thousands of jobs early in the new year, as part of a 2.5 billion pounds turnround plan to revive the fortunes of Britain's largest carmaker.
JLR, which employs around 40,000 people in the UK, has been hit by sliding demand in China and costs of preparing for Britain's departure from the European Union, the report noted.
Earlier in November, the British car maker had said it is undertaking adjustment of vehicle production at its plant at Wolverhampton in central England impacting 250 temporary jobs.
