NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) — AT&T Inc. said on Thursday that it will cut 12,000 jobs.

The Dallas-based telecom giant said that job reductions will total 4 percent of its workforce.

AT&T attributed the staff cuts to “economic pressures, a changing business mix and a more streamlined organizational structure.”

The company also said it would take a charge of $600 million in the fourth quarter to make severance payments. Also, AT&T said it would reduce its 2009 capital expenditures from its 2008 levels.
