CSC to slash hundreds of jobs

Up to 300 UK staff at outsourcing colossus CSC face the sack on Monday, as the firm ramps up a programme of brutal cutbacks.

Sources say compulsory redundancy notices, part of a company-wide restructuring, will be handed out across Regional and Global Operations, Global Solutions & Technology, Global Security Services, and Business Management divisions.

And how did our management actually advise UK staff that their jobs were at risk?

They gave us a phone number to call.

Behind phone number one?, the caller was told "your job is secure",
Behind phone number two?, "Your job is at risk".

Aldershot will be even emptier.
