Nikon to cut 1,000 jobs

Japanese camera and precision equipment maker Nikon Corp said on Tuesday that it would cut about 1,000 jobs, mostly at its domestic plants, as it braces for a loss this year.

Nikon said it would overhaul its operations making devices for use in the production of semiconductors. It will also downsize its subsidiary in Singapore and transfer part of the business to Taiwan. The group aims to reduce its annual costs by about eight billion yen ($84 million).
