Levi's will cut 700 office jobs of its worldwide corporate workforce
News24xx.com - Levi's said Tuesday that it will cut 700 office jobs, or about 15% of its worldwide corporate workforce, as it deals with a sharp drop in sales due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The San Francisco-based jeans maker said the layoffs will save it about $100 million a year and won't affect workers at its stores or factories.
Like other clothing companies, Levi's had to temporarily close its stores due to the virus. Many of the department stores that sell their jeans were also shut.
