The University of Calgary has axed 25 support staff positions in a move likely related to the provincial budget, a union official said Thursday. The job cuts began Wednesday, said Alberta Union of Provincial Employees Local 052 chair Justin Huseby, who expects they won’t be the last. “The positions of support staff were terminated and we anticipate more,” said Huseby. He said the positions were permanently “abolished,” with those let go responsible for such things as centralized communications and hosting internal and external events, said the union official.
