PITTSBURGH —

Workers at Pittsburgh's AT&T call centers are expected to rally Tuesday in protest of job cuts.

Late last week, company officials announced the layoffs of about 200 employees. They said the decision was made because of a decline in call volume at two landline call centers.

AT&T said it has lost more than 48 percent of its wired access lines, or nearly 30 million lines, in the last five years because customers increasingly are relying on wireless phones and disconnecting land lines.
