Hospital trust to axe 300 posts
Wednesday, 12.15pm: Around 300 posts are to be axed across Peterborough and Stamford Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, which runs the new £289 million Peterborough City Hospital.
As revealed by the Evening Telegraph earlier today (1 June), the trust’s board spent yesterday afternoon locked in talks to decide how to find £38 million worth of savings in its 2011/12 budget.
Trust chairman Nigel Hards suggested that jobs could be lost, but only today has the scale of the losses been announced.
He says they will “minimise” the number of redundancies by reducing temporary workforce and by not filling “non-essential” vacant posts.
