DCCL confirm jobs will go

Thursday, 2 February 2012 00:00

The DCCL has confirmed it’s to restructure following a review of staffing.

The Department is consulting on a new structure, which will remove a number of management and admin posts.

It says it wants to refocus on its frontline services.

The chief executive Nick Black said the department is currently consulting with staff who could be affected.

It’s unclear exactly how many staff will go but Mr Black said he would partake in personal discussions with them before any public announcement is made.

The Department runs three leisure sites - Curraghs Wildlife Park, the NSC and the Villa Marina and Gaiety Theatre Complex, as well as Bus Vannin and Heritage Railways.
