US company CSC is to cut 640 UK jobs relating to its 'unworkable' Lorenzo NHS IT contract, taking the total of announced job cuts to over 1,100 since February, according to the Unite trade union.
The majority of cuts will affect CSC employees in Chesterfield, Chorley, Leeds and Solihull, Unite said in a statement on Monday. "This announcement of a further 640 job cuts has dealt our members a severe body blow and left them absolutely devastated," Unite national officer Kevin O'Gallagher said.
