Hidden away in a council report are the new rules related to redundancy to allow the Vogon to be rid of staff. However to sack people you need people to do the sacking. Not wanting to talk to the unions or anything so menial as having discussion with staff, Ms Cutts has passed on the task of “change management” to senior officers.
So a change of redundancy conditions is coming in to give lower redundancy support to most staff.
However some staff are unaffected and can take redundancy on "grounds of efficiency". What this means is savings can apparently be made by saving on over inflated salaries of senior staff who will be encouraged to go by un-amended, very generous redundancy payouts, far better than the Oiks.
This noble and self-sacrificing minority are likely to be in positions that have to do Cutts dirty work, but will then get a large bung when they finally shuffle out the door, dragging their substantial redundancy and pension pots (which will be made up in years) behind them.
Many of these will no doubt enjoy a happy retirement - unless of course they choose to take on some lucrative consultancy work for councils who may have recently lost senior management.
