The boss of stricken South West construction giant Midas Group Ltd has blamed the Covid pandemic for the firm’s collapse.
Staff at the Exeter-headquartered firm have been told by calls and emails that the business is going into administration and there would be job losses.
Work on several construction sites around the South West has ceased with immediate effect and, with the exception of a small number of people retained to assist the administrators, the group’s remaining 303 employees have been made redundant.
