Employers Continue To Show Workers The Door

from National Public Radio

Employers seem to be focused on eliminating jobs. Some of the latest cuts announced Wednesday involve Delta Airlines, which said it expects to lose about 2,000 workers this month through an early retirement program. Motorola, which makes mobile phones, said it will lay off 4,000 workers this year. That's on top of the 3,000 job cuts announced earlier. Also, upscale department store Neiman Marcus said it's cutting 375 positions.
