Unite vows to fight to save Npower jobs
THE Unite union vowed today to fight to save as many jobs as possible after energy giant Npower’s “horrific” announcement of thousands of redundancies cast a shadow over Christmas for the firm’s staff.
Npower, which supplies gas and electricity to 2.5 million households, said it would axe up to 4,500 IT and customer-service workers as part of a drive to protect profits.
The company has not yet confirmed the exact number of job losses, but they could have a heavy impact on its sites in Hull, Leeds, Rainton, Swindon and Worcester.
