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:
Drug trafficker jailed for 12 years
Teachers will be paid for snow day
Minimum Wage: Details of business support to be unveiled in Tynwald
Man who strangled and abused ex-partner jailed
Salvation Army received over 1,800 referrals for help over Christmas
