The public postal service, Magyar Posta, is reported in the media to have been letting go of up to 250 workers in small groups of under 30 people at a time. The groups are said to be released in mutual agreements and in small waves in order to avoid mass layoffs. Media speculate the 500 of the 33,000 staff will be let go in this manner.
