Said the local paper: In the wake of substantial losses during the past fiscal year, Waterbury Hospital has set a goal of eliminating 10 percent of its work force, or the equivalent of 160 full-time positions, by the end of September. Though some jobs are expected to be eliminated by attrition and by not filling vacant positions, the hospital will be forced to lay off an undetermined number of workers over the next eight months, officials said Friday.
