Vivicta, formerly part of Tietoevry Tech Services, has begun consultations with employees in Norway about potential job cuts. The company is considering reducing its workforce by up to 35 positions. The move follows a broader restructuring plan aimed at improving efficiency and aligning operations with market demands.
Discussions with staff and union representatives are underway at Vivicta’s offices across Norway. The process is expected to take several weeks before final decisions are made. The company has not yet confirmed which departments or locations will be affected, but sources indicate the cuts could span multiple sites.
A spokesperson for Vivicta stated that the restructuring is necessary to ensure long-term competitiveness. The company has faced increasing pressure from competitors and changing customer needs in the IT services sector. The job reductions are part of a larger effort to streamline operations and reduce costs.
Vivicta employs around 2,000 people globally, with a significant portion based in Norway. The company has not disclosed how many of its Norwegian workforce could be impacted. Employees have been informed of the ongoing consultations but have not received specific details about the timeline or selection criteria.
The Norwegian labor market is closely monitoring the situation. Similar job cuts in the tech sector have drawn attention in recent months, as companies adjust to economic uncertainties and shifting industry trends.
