Liberty Mutual is discontinuing its Hopkinton peer-reviewed research efforts and will lay off up to 44 employees effective June 6.

Instead of conducting research internally, the insurer said will work with research groups and organizations, such as the Harvard School of Public Health, MIT, UMass-Amherst and UMass-Lowell, to research workplace safety, said spokesman John Cusolito. Liberty Mutual’s risk control and claims operations will continue to work to help commercial policyholders improve safety and return to work programs, he said.

Employees were notified of the change April 5, Cusolito said, and the company is supporting those interested in finding other positions within the company. Those that can’t be retained will receive outplacement assistance and severance packages, he said.
