CIGNA To Cut More Jobs / Laying Off 65 In State As Work Is Outsourced

Source: By DIANE LEVICK, Hartford Courant, March 10 2006

CIGNA HealthCare confirmed Thursday that it will lay off another 65 employees in Bloomfield and 26 in Chattanooga, Tenn., in May and June as it sends the work to the Philippines through vendor Accenture. The latest job cuts come on top of 109 - 56 of them in Bloomfield - that the health insurer disclosed in January in its ongoing efforts to trim expenses. That work was earmarked for Accenture, too.
