They have been offered alternative jobs at the firm
Some 250 staff affected by British Steel’s coke oven closure in Scunthorpe will be offered alternative roles, the firm says.
Concern was raised as to what would happen to around 250 people that work there, making up around 7% of British Steel’s overall workforce, but initial plans of redundancy appear to have been altered. A British Steel spokesperson said: “In the coming months we will press ahead with the closure of the coke ovens and we are pleased to say all employees affected by this decision will be offered alternative roles in the business.
“We are looking forward to rapidly progressing these discussions as Jingye is committed to transforming our business with planned investments providing the government can give assurances of a competitive landscape for energy and carbon.”
