West Penn Allegheny Health System furloughed 185 full-time equivalent people in response to the sputtering economy, the system announced.
The staff reduction, which were effective immediately, will be accomplished by attrition, eliminating vacant positions and layoffs. An exact number of people who lost their jobs was not available, according to spokesman Dan Laurent.
The system employs around 13,000 people and the layoffs affect every hospital and department in the network, the second biggest in the region next to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
