ROME (Reuters) - An accord Telecom Italia (MI:TLIT) signed with trade unions Monday night will achieve savings equivalent to 4,500 layoffs through so-called 'solidarity' measures, a source familiar with the matter said on Tuesday.

Solidarity measures usually entail employees cutting their working hours for an equivalent pay reduction.

The source said the measures agreed would affect 30,000 Telecom Italia workers for 12 months.
