The Modesto Bee is offering buyouts to all its full-time employees, the newspaper’s second round of buyout offers this year.

Bee publisher Margaret Randazzo said the offer was extended Monday to about 200 full-time employees.

Randazzo said changes in the news industry exacerbated by tough economic times spurred the need for cuts.

In April, the newspaper offered buyouts to about 100 employees, and 11 accepted. It laid off 15 non-editorial employees in June after its owner, McClatchy Co., decided to cut its work force companywide by 10 percent.

A plan to move the Bee’s printing operations to Sacramento will cost another 33 full-time employees and 127 part-time employees their jobs by the end of September, according to Randazzo.
