More than 5,000 Telefónica workers could leave the company from 2024 to 2026 via a redundancy programme.
There are currently 16,000 on its collective agreement payroll. Negotiations are now ongoing with unions.
The redundancy package could be available to all employees over 55 with 15 years' service.
Telefónica has seen technology change its needs for staff in recent years. In the early 90s it had over 70,000 working for the company.
