PRAGUE—Volkswagen’s Skoda Auto aims to cut 2 percent of administrative jobs in the Czech Republic in 2021 by not replacing staff who leave rather than through redundancies, the country’s largest carmaker said on Thursday.

Skoda, the Czech Republic’s biggest exporter, employs around 42,000 people globally. While most of these staff are employed locally, the company declined to give details on the local workforce or how many positions are administrative.
