BUFFALO, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- The nationwide auto industry crisis is affecting the Toyota plant in Putnam County.
The company announced Wednesday it would release 120 temporary workers at its manufacturing plant in Buffalo by the end of January.
The plant will also shut down production lines for Christmas earlier than expected and cut back on overtime.
A spokesperson for the auto maker says it's part of a company-wide effort to reduce costs due to the slowing demand for products.
Toyota’s sales dipped 23 percent in October.
