    YAHOO Inc is working on a plan to cut its workforce by at least 10 per cent and it could start the process as early as this month, Business Insider reported, citing sources.

The layoffs, which would result in more than 1,000 people leaving the tech giant, is set to affect Yahoo's media business, European operations, and platforms technology group, Business Insider said on Wednesday.
