    German pharmaceutical giant Celesio will axe 120 jobs at its UK head office as part of a restructure of its Lloydspharmacy and AAH operations.

    The firm underwent a 90-day consultaition period commencing May 8 when 1,100 workers were informed their jobs were at risk due to the planned restructuring.

    A spokesman for the company stated that 60 workers had already agreed to take voluntary redundancy so far, adding that though the consultation process had formally ended, discussions were still ongoing stating;

    “The consultation exercise has now ended. At the start of the consultation we had around 1,100 people who could have been affected by the restructuring. “The appointment process has not concluded, however, we expect to employ in future around 980 people in the new headquarters function.”

    The firm has said staff working the Lloydspharmacy retail network or AAH (Amalgamated Anthracite Holdings)  branch network would not be affected.

    But apparently the plans are not well recieved by Lloyds pharmacy staff according to a manager working at the company’s Walsgrave headquarters who likened the latest move to a “takeover” after it was announced warehousing company AAH will merge with Lloyds.

    The manager, who wishes to remain anonymous said;

    “The feeling on the Lloydspharmacy side very low – it’s decimated everyone at Lloyds. A lot of people have been leaving and finding jobs elsewhere.”

    He added;

    ““A lot of people have already left of their own volition mainly because they can see where it is going,” he said.

    “This is a case of a warehousing company taking over a retail company. It just seems massively out of sync.”
