A person close to the situation tells the Halifax Examiner that there was a “town hall meeting” for SaltWire employees today, in which job losses were announced.
The source says that “only about 20” employees from across the SaltWire chain will be offered a job by Postmedia within the next 24 hours. Additionally “about 60” employees will be told today or tomorrow that they won’t be hired by Postmedia.
The rest — about 283 employees — will be in a “transitional services group” spelled out in the sales agreement. Postmedia can decide over the next few months which of these employees will be offered a job.
