新闻热词：职员总数 headcount

据报道，汽车制造商戴姆勒克莱斯勒公司将在其梅塞德斯部门裁员8,500人,占公司总员工数的十分之一。这次裁员计划将会提高梅塞德斯·奔驰部门的生产率，从而增强奔驰汽车的市场竞争力。请看报道：

DaimlerChrysler, a German-US joint carmaker, announced on Wednesday that it will cut 8,500 jobs at its Mercedes Car Group. "These headcount reductions are indispensable. They will contribute to significant improvements in the competitiveness of Mercedes-Benz through an increase in productivity," the company said.

文中的headcount为"职员总数"的意思。如：Media executives outside the BBC expect job cuts to total 6,000 - just over one in five of the BBC's current 28,000 headcount.（高层预计至少会裁掉6000个工作岗位，所占比例超过BBC总共2.8万名员工的1/5。）此外，headcount 还可表示"总人数"。
