CVS Health to Lay Off 416 Employees Tied to Aetna’s Hartford Headquarters

CVS Health announced plans to lay off 416 employees associated with its subsidiary, Aetna, based in Hartford, Connecticut. This move, detailed in a notice under the WARN Act, includes 93 employees working at Aetna’s Hartford office and 323 remote workers. The layoffs are scheduled for December 8-21 and are expected to be permanent.

This announcement follows an earlier report from September 30, where CVS Health indicated it would cut 2,900 jobs across the U.S. as part of a strategy to save $2 billion through expense reduction and technology investment. The impacted roles include various administrative positions, reflecting ongoing cost-cutting measures in response to declining revenues at Aetna.
