Workers at a UK based company have reportedly been told they have to move to Romania or risk losing their jobs. The shock announcement came after Verastar Ltd in Sale announced a move to the Balkans, leaving employees at the telecommunications giant terrified about paying bills amid a cost-of-living crisis.
Approximately 60 workers were reportedly told to attend an online meeting last week. It was during this virtual session they were informed that they faced redundancy if they were unprepared to make the move to Romania.
Verastar Ltd is thought to provide essential services to over 10% of the UK's small businesses. The company cited a 'difficult economic climate' and 'war in Ukraine' as factors that spurred the decision to move their Telecoms Technical Support team to another company, reports Manchester Evening News.
