The Australian Services Union (ASU) claimed today that IT giant IBM is planning to offshore jobs from a number of its operations centres to China and India.
The union had been contacted by a number of employees who informed it of the move, according to the union's branch secretary Sally McManus. The workers had said the changes will affect around 150 jobs from systems operation centres located in Baulkham Hills and Cumberland Forest in Sydney, as well as Clayton in Melbourne. The positions would be moving to offshore centres located in Bangalore, India and Shen zhen, China, McManus said.
