Estee Lauder says it plans layoffs of up to 10,000 jobs worldwide as part of a restructuring aimed at $1.2 billion in annual savings. The total could rise to about 17.5% of its global workforce, with many cuts concentrated in department store roles. The company is also accelerating premium launches and shifting sales toward online and specialty retailers.
