Winchester workers at NTL are hopeful of avoiding the heaviest job cuts as the company reduces its workforce nationally.
The American-owned firm is to cut 1,300 jobs from its 22,000-strong workforce over the next 15 months.
The company, which has about 900 employees at Crawley near Winchester and its UK base at Hook, said it had yet to decide where the axe would fall and was consulting employees.
NTL has recently spent billions of pounds buying other companies and the losses would be in areas of duplication such as managers, backroom and support functions.
Bruce Randall, a spokesman at Crawley Court which specialises in telecommunications and broadcasting, said he hoped it would avoid the worst job losses.
Mr Randall said: "Every part of the company is affected. We are having to lose a few posts here.
"But with redistribution of jobs and voluntary redundancies, we are hoping for a very small number of involuntary redundancies."
