Ryanair tells Buzz to shed 400 jobs

EMPLOYEES at the struggling airline Buzz are believed to have accepted the restructuring deal proposed

Last night was the deadline set by the airline for the 600 staff to accept 400 job losses and changes to their working and pay conditions.

Ryanair would not comment on the deal last night, though sources close to Buzz at Reuters news agency said that it was likely to be accepted. “It is not surprising given that KLM has already advised its employees that the alternative to the Ryanair rescue is complete closure of Buzz on April 1 and the loss of all jobs,” the source said.
