Additional 2026 Layoff Dates

Can anyone confirm if the following dates are planned surplus announcement dates?

4/22/26
6/19/26
8/19/26
10/2/26
11/4/26

I just saw something that makes me pretty sure these are planned surplus announcement dates.

@27d So you think! Just wait. Craft too will be cut.

@emy some people were notified early from the account lockout a couple weeks ago. Some were asked to move across the country and declined. Some were just added to the list last week. This will be a deep cut.

Sooo, if announced on 6/19, would the direct people being let go be informed? Wouldn’t work groups be informed some time beforehand if they are affected?

@ak I really can't say other than seeing something online that provided future dates for meetings regarding layoffs.

Those dates would apply for any and all non bargained for employees!
Per union contract we have dates set in advance about 15 days before the start of each quarter for announcements of pending surplus!
Sorry your in management!

@OP Accurate. Five more surpluses in 2026. HR pdf I'm looking at shows notification dates of 2/16, 4/20, 6/17, 8/18, 10/1 & 11/2. You might be seeing a more updated version as we all know 2/16 was President's Day and the announcement went out 2/18.

bottom line ATT is at 130K employee's and the target is 85k. I would honestly say layoffs are going to be constant. Verizon has 85K employees now so we have some serious catching up to do.

The road to 75K personnel continues.
