termination of eco-friendly car subsidy. <BR></STRONG>Kyodo News Service dated
August 10 reported as follows.<BR>It was clarified on August 10, that Toyota
Motor had reduced temporary workforce which was about 2,300 at the end of March
to about 1,800 at the end of July. The company had increased the number of
worker due to the growth of the rising countries market and good demand for
eco-friendly car, but it changed the direction to curb the employment because
the eco-friendly car subsidy will become invalid at the end of September, and
the sales seems to be depressed. <BR>The maximum number of the temporary
workforce of Toyota was about 11,600 in 2005 when the achievement was expanding.
However, the new hiring was terminated from the end of June in '08 because auto
sales had gotten depressed due to the worldwide economic slump, and it became a
decreasing tendency. Afterwards, the number of worker has been secured by
restarting the adoption due to the recovery of sales of the eco-friendly car in
October, '09, and extending the employment period. <BR>Toyota is planning to
decrease output in October by about 20 percent compared to that in September,
and correspond to adoption carefully. <BR> <BR><STRONG>1) A young worker
