FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Responding to the news of job cuts at Virgin Media 02, Communication Workers Union assistant secretary Tracey Fussey said: “This news is causing a tremendous deal of anxiety among our membership, who are now feeling vulnerable about their jobs during an historic economic crisis.

“The confirmation of job losses is a tremendous disappointment, and we will be doing everything we can to mitigate against the redundancies.

“The announcement of 2000 redundancies includes changes already made this year.  We will continue to actively work with VMO2 through the consultation processes.

“Workers deserve clarity and security over their futures, and the CWU will do everything in our power to ensure that is what our members will get.”
