ntl managers made sure they where not under TUPE as they know the conditions the contractors work under, it seems in the past when ntl have made the bottom end of the ladder redundant they have made sure they only make 100 or less so as to make it 30 days notice but when there are management for the chop its always more than 100 so they get the 90 days norm. Its getting really bad working for ntl as they seem to be taking there time letting us know where the 6000 jobs are coming from, its getting a lot harder getting up in the mornings with the thought redundancy looming.
COME ON NTL ITS NOT HARD YOU KNOW THERE ARE 6000 GOING JUST TELL US AND PUT US OUT OF ARE MISSERAY.

I think they have been doing the less than 100 trick for a time, I seem to remember they made 97 or 98? redundant in one region to keep under the magic figure.
I think they made a further number redundant after the dust had settled from that one in the same region. There is one manager in that region who seemed to take great pride in making people redundant, and was very much matter of fact about not caring when the managers under him had to re-apply.
There are quite a few rotten apples in the ntl barrel, and they always seem to survive.
