GMB, the energy union, has reacted to reports NPower is expected to cut 4,500 jobs in the UK.
A GMB spokesperson said:
“Clearly this announcement will be a body blow to Npower workers across the UK. The Government has to urgently wake up to the impact that the price cap is having on good and reasonably well-paid jobs in UK energy companies.
“Npower is a poorly managed company with significant losses in the UK but it’s always the workers that face the brunt of poor management coupled with regulation that sends work overseas whilst sacking energy workers in the UK.”
