BA-BEANCOUNTER
Just to correct a previous poster, we've been told that any senior manager who fails to secure a post by end of March 2006 will be out, no careerlink no BRS, just OUT!
Don't get me wrong - everyone has commitments and family etc.... but I say GOOD, ABOUT BL00DY TIME. The company does not owe anyone a living, let alone people not contributing to the bottom line. Keeping people on, on gardening leave etc does the remaining employees no favours at all. I say give them their contractual notice and pay them the statutory minimum severance and thank them for their past service and wish them well in the future. This company has been held back by its lack of bollox in having a no compulsory redundancies policy.
