CBC
Telecommunications giant Telus says it plans to trim 6,000 jobs, citing its need to remain competitive.
The cuts will involve 4,000 positions at its main Telus business and 2,000 at Telus International and will include offers of early retirement and voluntary departure packages, the Vancouver-based company said Friday.
The restructuring comes amid what the company calls "resilient" second-quarter results.
More to come.
