ConocoPhillips to Kick Off November by Slashing Jobs in Alberta, BC
What’s Happening at ConocoPhillips?
ConocoPhillips is reportedly planning to kick off November by scaling back the size of its Canadian workforce.
According to a memo seen by Reuters, staff in Calgary will be notified virtually on Nov. 5. Those in Surmont and Montney will be told in person on Nov. 6.
“We will not be sharing area-specific workforce numbers for current or impacted employees and contractors,” spokesperson Dennis Nuss said in an email.
The bombshell update comes after the oil producer confirmed in September that it was looking to slash around one-quarter of its global headcount as part of a broader restructuring program.
