RE: Boston Globe – Editorial Buyout February 2009

The BNG requests information relative to The Globe’s plans should the current buyout before the full-time editorial employees not yield the target of 50 reductions sought by The Globe.

Information should include, but not be limited to, what employees to be impacted, which job classifications impacted and how, which employment status (FT/PT), target date of layoffs, and further plans for layoff through editorial or any other Globe classifications.

We look forward to receipt of this information.
