GMB Trade Union - Thames Water announces further job cuts

Workers at Thames deserve better news at Christmas

Thames Water has announced a further 37 redundancies across its clerical, managerial and technical departments.

These are on top of 140 redundancies announced earlier this month.

Gary Carter, GMB National Officer, said:

“More redundancies by Thames is not the answer to the company’s short or long term woes.

“If this is part of a plan, then it’s not one the workforce knows or signs up to.

“As it stands hundreds of loyal Thames Water workers will lose their jobs before Christmas.

“Problems at Thames run deep and redundancies are not the answer.

“The shareholders need to invest in assets, infrastructure and jobs, not redundancies.

“Workers at Thames deserve better news at Christmas.”
