Carillion workers told to come in, do nothing or be sacked

Carillion construction staff still working for the failed contractor are being threatened with the sack unless they come in and do nothing – Construction Enquirer reports.

Although around 8,000 staff have either been made redundant or transferred to new employers, hundreds of staff are still left in limbo as job cuts are confirmed in piecemeal fashion.

One told the Enquirer: “It’s not like we are being put out of our misery quickly after the firm failed. This is death by a thousand cuts. The information we are given about our future is a joke.

“We are just told to turn up as normal and sit around doing nothing. If we don’t we will be dismissed and lose out on any redundancy pay.”
