(clarifies Medibank Private has confirmed 140 full-time staff could be transferred, not 250 as union suggests)

CANBERRA, April 1 Asia Pulse - Medibank Private has confirmed about 140 full-time staff members will be shifted to part-time work, as Australian the government-owned health insurer merges with an occupational health services firm.

But a Medibank spokesman says no jobs will be lost as part of a restructure.

"There's certainly no jobs going today," spokesman James Connors told AAP.

The Community and Pubic Sector Union said 250 full-time staff had been asked to move to part-time work but Mr Connors said the number was likely to be lower.

"We're still in consultation and we don't have a final number," he said.

"One figure we had was 140. It could be higher but it won't be anything like 250."
