More than 300 staff at china and crystal maker Waterford Wedgwood have lost their jobs, administrators confirmed today.
A total of 367 workers were made redundant, the majority at the company’s site in Barlaston, Staffordshire, Deloitte said.
Angus Martin, joint administrator, said the job losses were out of a total of 1,868 UK employees. “The business will be continuing to trade as normal, and the administrators are continuing discussions with parties who have expressed an interest in purchasing the business,” he said.
“Every effort is being made to avoid further redundancies across the business.”
