Sweden's Volvo Cars has made the decision to cut 3,000 jobs through a program aimed at reducing costs. The company has made the decision considering the trade tensions and the economic uncertainty they bring to the automotive sector.

On Monday, the company announced it will eliminate around 1,200 workers among its employees in Sweden. Another 1,000 positions filled by consultants will also be eliminated at the same time. The majority of these workers will be laid off in Sweden.

The rest of the positions will be eliminated in other markets around the world. All the jobs eliminated are office roles. "The announcements today are tough, but they are necessary steps as we create a stronger, more resilient Volvo Cars," said Hakan Samuelsson, president and CEO of Volvo Cars.
