GM moving more top jobs overseas

DETROIT (AP) -- As part of sweeping cost-cutting efforts, General Motors Corp.'s manufacturing arm plans dramatically increased spending on white-collar work in Canada and overseas, the company said Tuesday.

The latest spending plan, outlined in an internal company report, represents less than 1 percent of GM's global vehicle operations budget, said company spokesman Dan Flores.

"In 2003, we began offshoring activities moving $3.5 (million) of work to lower-cost locations," the report said, "and we are planning to increase that to $48 (million) in 2004."
