Deutsche Telekom to cut 3,000 jobs


Visitors walk past the Deutsche Telekom logo at the German telecommunications giant's stand at the world's biggest high-tech fair, the CeBIT, in Hanover in March 2009. Deutsche Telekom will cut around 3,000 jobs in Germany at its IT subsidiary T-Systems by 2010, the company said on Wednesday following talks with union representatives.

BERLIN (AFP) - – German telecom giant Deutsche Telekom will cut around 3,000 jobs in Germany at its IT subsidiary T-Systems by 2010, the company said on Wednesday following talks with union representatives.

Deutsche Telekom, a former state monopoly, has already cut some 32,000 jobs under cost-cutting plans announced in 2005. T-Systems alone employs 46,000 people and is restructuring after a run of poor results in recent years.
