M&S plans 950 redundancies in restructuring

Collective consultation has begun, and the retailer will very first give voluntary redundancy to influenced personnel.
It said the new administration composition will remove role duplication and offer “clearer leadership accountabilities”.

By the disaster we have noticed how we can do the job speedier and a lot more flexibly by empowering keep groups and it can be necessary that we embed that way of functioning. Our precedence now is to aid all people influenced by way of the consultation method and further than.”
