Staff's anger as home-working scheme is axed

Staff say many are looking for new jobs after was announced that working from home would be cancelled during a company meeting.

The workers claim that the sportswear and trainers giant, based in Bury, had recruited from far outside Greater Manchester while promoting employees' ability to work from home.

But now, staff say all workers are expected to come to the office from the summer, even though some people joined the company from beyond the region with the promise that they would not have to attend the office full time.

Staff say they fear that the move back to the office is part of increasing 'micromanagement' following a 'loss in profits!

The retailer says it introduced a hybrid working policy for office-based staff as a 'temporary' measure in response to the Covid-19 pandemic.
