The Island’s full-time bus drivers have found themselves out of work this morning after they were told they’d have to reapply for their jobs.
Letters have been arriving today informing them they’ve been given their notice after failing to reach an agreement about terms and conditions.
It’s the latest move in a dispute which has been running between unions and the Department of Community, Culture and Leisure.
Drivers have been bitterly criticising the letters on social media.
Nick Black of the DCCL says he's hopeful drivers will agree, but contingencies are in place to maintain services:
Police carry out investigation following concerns over welfare of dog
Residency requirements and 2027 implementation among proposed changes to assisted dying bill
Isle of Man public service grows to 7,500
Prison mental health services unsafe, review says
