We used to have a large training department in my office, but in our recent restructure it was eliminated and the staff were made redundant. to downsize = to make an organisation smaller and employ fewer people My father’s college used to employ almost one thousand people, but then it downsized and now has less than five hundred. to outsource = to stop doing work inside the company and send it to other companies or other countries, usually to save money Many American companies have outsourced their IT operations to Asian countries, where productivity is similar and salaries are lower. the workforce = the total number of people working in an organisation, company or country The workforce in Northern Europe is skilled, but it’s also inflexible and much older than in other parts of the world.
