EMI confirm staff consultation process under way

EMI has begun a staff consultation process to decide which third of its workforce will be cut under new owner Terra Firma, with the biggest cuts reportedly in sales, marketing and distribution.

The previously reported "staff consultation process" is officially up and running at EMI. The consulting will decide which third of the major record company's workforce will be axed as part of new owner Terra Firma's big downsize. Terra Firma/EMI Group boss Guy Hands has reportedly written to every member of staff at the major to tell them that their job is now "officially under scrutiny". According to the Times, the biggest cuts will be in sales, marketing and distribution, with A&R types seemingly less affected by the cull.
