Dell Inc is cutting more than 1,200 jobs, about 900 of them at a call centre in Canada, as the computer maker reduces its sales and support work force.
It is one of the biggest rounds of layoffs at Dell since May, when the company announced it would reduce its work force by 10 per cent. The company had 88,500 employees worldwide at the end of October.
Dell said on Thursday that it would close its call centre in Edmonton, Alberta - one of two such facilities in Canada - by the end of July. It will make smaller reductions in Oklahoma City and Ottawa, Ontario.
Rumours of the cuts had swirled in Oklahoma City and Ottawa as Dell neared the end of its fiscal year on Thursday.
