Biggest number of staff axed at bust firm in seven day period since early February

Carillion apprentices bore the brunt of job cuts at the bust firm last week with close to 350 being given their P45s by the Official Receiver.

An update from the Official Receiver confirmed 356 Carillion staffers had been axed in the past seven days, 341 of whom were apprentices in the firm’s construction business.

The figure means 95% of those axed were apprentices who now face the task of trying to find new employers.
