Talbots Makes Cuts in Northeast and Tampa

Talbots has unveiled plans to reduce its corporate work force by 9 percent, or slightly more than 100 positions, as part of a broader effort to trim $50 million out of its annual budget. Talbots spokeswoman Julie Lorigan said most of the layoffs are taking place in Hingham,MA, with some in New York and Tampa.

The latest cuts follow Talbots’ decision in 2010 to close roughly 100 stores and a move in 2009 to trim more than 300 positions from the corporate staff.
