BCE Inc., Bell Canada’s parent company, is cutting nearly 700 jobs as part of ongoing “organizational changes” that began last year, according to multiple reports. The company says the reductions affect about 1% of its total workforce, amounting to roughly 690 positions. The cuts are spread across various roles throughout the organization and across Canada, rather than being limited to a single location or department. BCE says approximately 230 of the impacted roles are unionized. For many eligible unionized employees, the company is offering voluntary separation packages.

The reports note that the planned reductions are part of a wider set of changes that started in the previous year, and the details of which specific positions are affected vary by function and region.
