Air Canada has cut approximately 400 management jobs, representing about 1% of the airline's workforce.
The cuts come two months after a flight attendant strike in August, which shut down Air Canada operations and caused over 3,000 flight cancellations.
Following an extensive review, we! made the difficult decision to reduce some non-unionized management positions, affecting one per cent of our total staff.
The strike by over 10,000 flight attendants cost Air Canada $375-million, prompting the company to lower its adjusted earnings forecast for the year by about that amount to $3 billion.
The cuts will not affect day-to-day operations at the country's biggest airline, according to spokeswoman Angela Mah.
