Kaiser Permanente To Cut 1,850 California Jobs

RIVERSIDE (CBS) ― Kaiser Permanente is laying off 650 workers in Southern California. Another 1,200 jobs are being cut in Northern California.

The cutbacks will reportedly involve temporary, on-call or short-hour employees, but no doctors or nurses.

The company's vice president cited uncertainty over Medicare and health care reform.

Kaiser is offering a severance package to employees and trying to place them in other jobs.
