the job cuts will be phased out over a period of a year.
"Of the job cuts, 12,000 will be in Japan, and the rest will be overseas, it said. The company did not give a further regional breakdown. "
"As one key step in response to the dismal results, Ghosn said Nissan's global work force will be reduced by 20,000 through March 2010, to 215,000 from 235,000."
