Potential BT job cuts will ‘have little impact on CWU’ members, the union maintains
COMMUNICATIONS union CWU responded bullishly to reports today that BT is preparing to announce plans to cut more than 6,000 jobs worldwide.
The telecoms giant is to announce major job cuts next week as part of a new corporate strategy to revive its ailing financial position, according to the Financial Times.
