Coronavirus: Honda announces furloughs, early retirement program

Honda has suspended production for its automobile, engine and transmission plants in the U.S. and Canada through May 1. Honda began its automobile production suspension on March 23.

Honda has facilities in Marysville, Logan, East Liberty and Anna, Ohio.
Separately, Honda has come out with an early retirement program that gives eligible associates the chance to retire and received enhanced benefits.
