Chrysler parent company Stellantis NV said Friday it has offered voluntary buyouts to some of its 13,000 U.S. salaried employees.

Salaried workers age 55 or older who have been with the automaker at least 10 years are eligible.

The Italian-American automaker said the offer was "part of our transformation to become a sustainable tech mobility company and the market leader in low-emission vehicles."

The deadline to seek a buyout is Dec. 5.
