Support flows in for Jaguar Land Rover staff after 'heartbreaking' job cuts

Support has flowed in for workers who were let go just days before Christmas at Jaguar Land Rover's Halewood plant.

Dozens of agency staff were told they would no longer be required at the plant on December 21, with their final shifts being the following day. The workers had believed their contracts would run until at least April 2023, but were summoned to a meeting and told they would be out of jobs just days before Christmas.

One of those agency staff, called Lee, said it was "humiliating" to be told his job was ending just days before Christmas but that he would only be paid in January if he and the other agency workers finished that same shift and the final one the following day.
