Around 70 staff at Port Talbot steel works are at risk of losing their jobs as workers have been told their roles are being transferred to another company based in India. Tata Steel has entered into consultations with the affected members of staff, who work in a variety of back office operations such as data processing and invoice inputting. The company said that it would look to offer all those whose jobs are affected alternative employment opportunities within the group.
The news comes just a day after the Indian steel giant announced a GBP 30 million investment in the plant.
The approximately 70 roles are being transferred to another company within the group, Tata Consultancy Services, which carries out IT services operations mostly in India.
Combined with the investments announced this week it is being presented as part of a strategy to make the company¡¯s UK operations more sustainable.
A Tata Steel spokesman said that ¡°We are working hard to transform the UK business and develop a sustainable future here. We are making a number of investments to support that transformation, helping to strengthen reliability and allow the development and production of high-performing steels demanded by customers. We are also striving to improve productivity wherever possible, which helps unlock vital investment for the UK business. We are currently consulting with about 70 employees in some back-office functions to transfer administrative tasks, such as invoice processing and data inputting, to a third-party company. We will endeavour to offer every affected employee an alternative role within the company.¡±
