(MENAFN) Japan's Fukushima nuclear power plant operator plans to cut over 1,000 jobs through voluntary retirement, Times of Oman reported.
Tokyo Electric Power (TEPCO), the crippled power plant operator, is looking to demonstrate cost-cutting efforts as the government is considering funding decontaminating areas around the plant publically.
An earthquake and tsunami in 2011 damaged Fukushima's cooling system, which lead to a reactor meltdown setting off the world's worst nuclear accident since Chernobyl in 1986.
