Goodyear Tire to Cut About 400 Jobs in Europe, Middle East and Africa

By Katherine Hamilton

Goodyear Tire & Rubber plans to eliminate about 400 jobs, part of a company-wide strategy to streamline sales and distribution, and simplify business processes.

The tire maker said Friday it approved a rationalization plan for its business in Europe, the Middle East and Africa to reduce costs.

The job cuts are expected to improve the region's operating income by about $25 million to $40 million in 2028, and by $50 million a year after that.

The proposed restructuring would lead to a reduction of 600 positions across the Europe, Middle East and Africa region, while creating 200 new roles.

Goodyear expects pre-tax charges of $100 million to $110 million related to the job cuts. Of that, $75 million to $85 million are expected to be rationalization charges.

The company anticipates $25 million of the total associated cash outflows will occur this year, with $50 million in 2027 and the remainder in 2028 and 2029.

The actions should be substantially complete by 2028, Goodyear said.
