<<I guess that is how they plan to increase their dividend. ENB says duplications exist in the combined company's "organizational structure," and the workforce reductions are a component of the synergies expected over the coming months as it fully integrates the companies.>> I do not know if that would cover the dividend increases :) It is usual for merged companies to end up with unneeded duplication in staff. Cutting is also customary. I hope the cut employees get treated well as they depart.
