Measures taken by Adient include:

  • Reducing pay of non-plant employees in the US (including Adient’s leadership team and board of directors fees)
  • Short-time work models across various countries in Europe
  • Other austerity measures designed to protect Adient’s cash flow and liquidity

“Although much uncertainty lies ahead, we are encouraged by the positive developments in China, where all of Adient’s 79 JV plants have reopened,” said an Adient statement. “The restart of Adient’s China operations provided a proven framework that was used to develop detailed restart procedures for Americas and EMEA, which are in the early stages of reopening.

“By working closely with our customers, Adient has identified the plants that will be first to restart based on our customers’ needs and supplier availability. We are prepared to ramp up operations as our customers return to work and increase vehicle production around the world.”

Adient employees are supporting their local communities and automaker customers through various manufacturing initiatives.
