According to a local newspaper report, Lyreco could be making redundancies across the UK and Ireland.

A spokeswoman for Lyreco said it was proposing 64 redundancies – less than three per cent of the total workforce.

“Lyreco employs 650 people at its Donnington Wood site in Telford. Potential redundancies in Telford could be 12 reductions and shorter working hours, or a total of 30 reductions if hours remain the same,” she said, referring to cuts at Lyreco’s UK head office.
