Layoffs begin at AP

美聯啟動3年來最大裁員

Layoffs began Tuesday at The Associated Press (AP), as part of a plan to reduce its global payroll by 10% this year. Twenty jobs were cut at AP headquarters in New York, and management has not yet said how many will be dismissed in all. The layoffs were the largest since 2006.

作為其2009年全球裁員10%計劃的一部分，美聯社17日起開始裁員，紐約總部已有20人被解雇。管理層尚未就裁員總數發布任何聲明。據悉，此次裁員計劃是自2006年人數最多的一次。
