SMS notice of redundancy sent to call center staff
The UK based personal injury compensation firm, The Accident Group has filed for bankruptcy, and dismissed its entire 2,500 workforce – by sending them a text message.
"I must apologise for the nature of this call. I would have preferred to have done this on a face-to-face basis," said the message to staff of The Accident Group, which specialised in personal injury claims. "On the time scale available, this has not proved possible."
