At least 50 unionized journalists have taken a buyout at the New York Times.

It could not be learned how many non-unionized workers — also offered a package — had accepted.

The deadline was July 17.

Regardless, there is likely to be more than a little unease in the ranks as potential involuntary layoffs could still remain a possibility.

Staffers remember that Executive Editor Dean Baquet once sent out mixed messages about such moves.

In 2014, the last big round of buyouts, more than 100 newsroom hands stepped forward to take a voluntary package — but Times Publisher Arthur Sulzberger and Baquet chopped an additional two dozen staffers.

They claimed the number of volunteers had fallen short of the desired number.

The News Guild of New York said of the latest layoffs: “Of the 53 newsroom colleagues applying for the buyout, the company rejected only one. Two applicants have revoked their buyout requests and will remain in their jobs. So, barring any additional revocations, 50 Guild Newsroom colleagues will leave under this buyout, and one Guild member from the business side also will go.”

The buyout was also open to non-union workers, but the Guild said it had no way of knowing how many had been accepted.

A Times spokeswoman declined to comment on the numbers.
