According to its editor Simon Kelner,the Independent latest redundancies are as a result of a structure that the paper has had since its foundation in 1986.
"It's a 1986 structure for a 2007 newspaper, and there are ways that we can do things more efficiently and in a streamlined way,"
According to Guardian media
The paper and its sister title the Independent on Sunday are seeking 20 staff redundancies, and will award staff a 3.5% agreed pay rise as part of a restructuring process that could see the news operations of both papers merge.
"Like every other newspaper everywhere in the world, we are looking at how to produce our newspaper more economically at the moment when our revenues are under pressure," Mr Kelner said.
