French term or phrase: avec un objectif de suppressions de postes en ligne
I'm confused by the meaning of the phrase that I have bracketed below:
"Il indique qu'un deuxième plan social sera négocié à l'issue de la présentation des comptes de l'exercice 1994 et de l'élection des représentants du personnel, et que la procédure utilisée demeurera probablement identique à celle appliqueée pour le premier plan (durée de douze mois notamment) [avec un objectif de suppressions de postes en ligne avec celui de réduction du coefficient d'exploitation]."
Do they mean to eliminate online jobs?

Explanation:
-a second plan will be negociated (after 1994 finalization and representatives elections)
- same procedure than for the first plan, 12 month process
- the number of jobs suppressions will be correlated (aligned with)with the operating (cost/revenue) ration
