Manchester Union-Leader In New Hampshire Faces Layoffs, 10 % Salary Cut
The largest newspaper in New Hampshire is going to get a little smaller in the days to come.
After the Manchester News Guild unanimously rejected the Union-Leader’s proposal to cut pay by 10 percent, cut sick time and increase the workweek, the newspaper says it must achieve cost savings through other means: layoffs.
The Union-Leader will cut six positions, including three senior reporters, sometime in early November, reports NHPR— New Hampshire public radio. The 10 percent pay cut will also take effect anyway.
This comes two years after staff already accepted a double-digit pay cut, NHPR says.
