In addition to the 82 companywide layoffs – 60 full-time and 22 part-time employees – the Observer will reduce the hours of some employees. Sixteen full-time newsroom staffers and 11 part-time employees are part of the layoffs.
The moves come after the Observer’s parent company, Sacramento, Calif.-based McClatchy Co.,, said this month it would slash 1,600 jobs and reduce salaries to lower operating expenses.
