Telia announces plan to cut about 900 jobs to save 1 billion SEK annually
Swedish telecom group Telia announced on 12 October 2026 a plan to cut about 900 positions, roughly 6% of its workforce of about 14,100, covering full-time employees and external resource consultants, aiming for annual savings of 1 billion Swedish kronor (about RM408 million) including cuts to the operating cost base. The plan, subject to routine union consultation, is expected to be completed by 31 December.
