Beacon to implement redundancies and pay reviews

The Beacon Medical Group, which was appointed by the HSE to develop three co-located hospitals, is to implement redundancies and pay reviews.

Following a company cost review, six administrative staff members in head office have lost their jobs and all senior management have agreed to take pay reviews.

The medical group employs 550 staff and say there have not been any job cuts at Beacon Hospital in Dublin or any of the hospital's other medical facilities.
