-->Verizon's workforce to be reduced by 21,600 (VZ) By Tomi Kilgore
NEW YORK (CBS.MW) - Verizon (VZ) said approximately 21,600 employees will leave the payroll by the end of the week as part of the company's voluntary separation program. That represents less than 10 percent of the company's workforce. The plan primarily targeted managers in its domestic telecom unit, union-represented employees in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions and employees in its information services business. Smith Barney analyst Michael Rollins noted that the company had previously expected to plan to lead to a workforce reduction of approximately 12,000 employees. The stock tacked on 42 cents to $33.03.
