Telstra has notified the CWU that it plans to make changes in Telstra Business that will result in the loss of at least 83 jobs from the company.
While the CWU is yet to be briefed on the detail of these losses, it would appear they stem from a restructure involving centralisation of both sales and technical support roles in the Premium Services Group as well as consolidation of functions within Sale and Service Channels.
The CWU anticipates meeting with Telstra on these proposals during the week beginning 11 July. Affected members should contact their state branches for any advice and assistance they require.
