June 10 (Reuters) - ⁠Chip-equipment maker ASML ⁠will cut fewer jobs ‌than initially planned, Dutch unions said in a statement ​after talks with ⁠ASML.

Redundancies are ⁠now expected to take effect ⁠from ‌May 2027, ASML spokesperson ⁠Monique Mols said, adding that ​employees ‌will be informed before ⁠the end ​of this month whether their roles are ⁠affected. She said ​instead of redundancy, some might see their roles ⁠changed within the company.

"We want to see as few people as ​possible forced ⁠to leave", she said.
