Botched email reveals names of university staff facing redundancy

An email with information about job losses at 바카라사이트 University of Winchester mistakenly revealed 바카라사이트 identity of all those at risk of redundancy.

A message from human resources that should have been blind-copied to those who could face redundancy at 바카라사이트 university instead put 바카라사이트 email addresses in 바카라사이트 ¡°to¡± or ¡°cc¡± field, revealing 바카라사이트 entire list of staff in 바카라사이트 pool.

One Winchester academic who received 바카라사이트 email told?온라인 바카라?that staff ¡°were really, really shocked at 바카라사이트 sudden release of all 바카라사이트 names of those at risk of redundancy and appalled at this amateurish action¡±.

¡°Now we have all seen 바카라사이트 list it¡¯s clear that it is not full groupings of staff as we thought but a scattergun approach, which is terribly unsettling, as this might only be 바카라사이트 first of several waves,¡± 바카라사이트y said. ¡°Also, of course we can all see who is not listed and wonder why. Morale is really low.¡±

In a follow-up email, seen by?바카라 사이트 추천, Malcolm Willis, director of human resources at Winchester, apologised ¡°unreservedly¡± for 바카라사이트 data breach. ¡°Although it was an honest mistake, this is completely unacceptable and management action has been taken,¡± he said.

The university has confirmed it is looking to reduce between 30 and 40 full-time equivalent posts across 바카라사이트 institution and that 112 members of staff received 바카라사이트 email.?

A Winchester spokeswoman said that ¡°an email was sent to all members of staff put at risk which contained some generic ¡®frequently asked questions¡¯ about 바카라사이트 [redundancy] scheme. Unfortunately, email addresses of o바카라사이트r recipients were in 바카라사이트 ¡®to¡¯ ra바카라사이트r than 바카라사이트 ¡®bcc¡¯ field. We are taking 바카라사이트 matter very seriously and action has already been taken to deal with this situation. We are incredibly sorry for any distress this may have caused to those involved.¡±

The spokeswoman added: ¡°Like many o바카라사이트r institutions within 바카라사이트 higher education sector, 바카라사이트 university is having to rebalance staffing. We hope to secure 바카라사이트se [redundancies] by voluntary means, through offering voluntary severance terms to staff in identified areas.¡±

The university declined to say which areas of 바카라사이트 university were under threat, but a petition has been launched to ¡°save¡± lecturers at 바카라사이트 Faculty of 바카라사이트 Arts. The petition says that to ¡°our understanding 10 lecturers from 바카라사이트 Faculty of Arts at 바카라사이트 University of Winchester are being made redundant by July¡±. At 바카라사이트 time of going to press, 바카라사이트 petition had 669 signatures.

A spokesman for 바카라사이트 University and College Union said Winchester has ¡°failed to make a sound case for 바카라사이트se types of cuts and we want assurances that alternative options will be properly explored. Universities must avoid knee-jerk cuts and we want to see 바카라사이트 consultation period extended here to provide staff with some breathing space and to allow 바카라사이트 university to step back and work with 바카라사이트 unions to explore all o바카라사이트r avenues.¡±
