Hi all,
I have been furloughed since the end of March which has been a blessing as it has allowed for me to take a lead on childcare whilst the school is out.
However, I have been asked to keep a bi-weekly check on my work email for updates, and among the more recent ones has been a call for expressing an interest in voluntary redundancy. There has been no revised structure shared, nor indication on those at risk - just that there will be some voluntary redundancies, and probably some additional to this (as they consolidate roles).
I have worked very hard for the Company over the past 10 years, putting them and deadlines above any CPD that I may have wanted to do, but now feel like I find myself very much in the position that my role will be one of those that has been identified as one that could be lost (very niche role, but a busy one).
I don't expect specific advice with regards to my current situation, but just feedback from anyone that may have been through a similar process - we have been asked to express interest, with no firm commitment and no impact should we decline what's on offer at this stage - but is this likely to actually be the case? Or if I express an interest am I likely to be top of any list when it comes to the next cull?
