HARTFORD, Conn. (WTIC Radio) - AETNA CVS Health announces it plans to lay off 5,000 corporate positions this year.
There is no explanation, at this time, how the job cuts will affect positions regionally or nationally.
When CVS and AETNA merged in 2018, the bulk of corporate CVS jobs remained in Hartford. It remains unclear what staffing levels there are as of 2023, and it remains yet to be seen how the announced cuts will affect these positions.
First-District Congressman John Larson (D-CT) issued a statement:
The cuts would reflect a 2% reduction in workforce. The company employs over 300,000 people.
