(Detroit, MI) -- General Motors may cut more of its workforce by making some of its temporary layoffs permanent.
Between 6,000 and 7,000 workers are currently on layoff, and GM CEO Fritz Henderson says some of those workers might not be brought back.
Henderson did not say how many of the layoffs would become permanent, but did say no deep cuts would be made.
He added he does not think that will be necessary.
GM has cut about 13,000 hourly workers this year as part of its court-ordered restructuring.
