据报道,汽车制造商戴姆勒克莱斯勒公司将在其梅塞德斯部门裁员8,500人,占公司总员工数的十分之一。这次裁员计划将会提高梅塞德斯·奔驰部门的生产率,从而增强奔驰汽车的市场竞争力。请看报道:
DaimlerChrysler, a German-US joint carmaker, announced on Wednesday that it will cut 8,500 jobs at its Mercedes Car Group. "Theseheadcountreductions are indispensable. They will contribute to significant improvements in the competitiveness of Mercedes-Benz through an increase in productivity," the company said.
文中的headcount为"职员总数"的意思。如:Media executives outside the BBC expect job cuts to total 6,000 - just over one in five of the BBC's current 28,000 headcount.(高层预计至少会裁掉6000个工作岗位,所占比例超过BBC总共2.8万名员工的1/5。)此外,headcount 还可表示"总人数"。
