GM Europe to slash costs in blow to German workers

Article Abstract:

In an effort to recover from five straight years of losses, General Motors Europe is aiming to cut costs by $619.8 million by 2006.

Labor leaders suspect that the majority of layoffs will be aimed at the company's German operations.
