    Goodyear, an Ohio based company, is reportedly moving some jobs from the Buckeye State to Costa Rica.

    The Akron Beacon Journal reports that 175 jobs from Akron, Ohio will be relocating to Costa Rica.

    The expected change should happen early next year.

    Goodyear provided the following statement, “As part of our Goodyear Forward transformation plan, we are relocating 175 roles supporting our Americas business and corporate functions to a new Goodyear location in Costa Rica, effective in early 2025.”

    The company also said that no union employees will be affected.

    In May, Goodyear said they got rid of 135 positions in the U.S. and Latin America.
