All of P&O Ferries' sailing staff have reportedly been made redundant after services were suspended earlier today. ITV News said the redundancy is with ‘immediate effect’.
The ferries will be kept running with agency staff, ITV News reported. P&O sailing staff will be able to apply for work with the agency.
ITV's Shehab Khan said on Twitter: "Understand that all sailing staff at P&O Ferries have been made redundant with immediate effect. The company will use an agency to keep their ferries running and current staff will be able to apply to the agency for work."
