Nothing to do with you but moving the jobs in the Albert Dock to Swansea is not a good way to hold on to any existing staff as the majority have family and in many cases mortgages in the Merseyside area.

They knew that the majority would find it impossible to even contemplate such a move due to personal circumstances, I do wish anyone well that has decided to make the move but I feel the question of trust cannot truly exist under the circumstances.

Anyone that takes up a position should also be aware that they will be expected to stay with the company for a minimum of 2 years or they will be required to pay back any monies given to help with their relocation, possibly pro rata the longer they stay there.

As I have said on many occasions the is no need for anyone to move due to the high availability of jobs locally.
