Industry News | 13/10/20

U.K. job cuts jumped the most on record in the three months through August even as lockdown eased, raising concern that the worst is yet to come.

The number of redundancies climbed 114,000 in the June-August period, the most since 1995, the Office for National Statistics said Tuesday. That left the total at 227,000, a rate of more than 8 per 1,000 employees.
