Balfour Beatty continues its tough response to the downturn as it continues to reshape the company and close down operations.
Construction Enquirer reports that Britain’s largest contractor has drawn up a proposal to close its Hall & Tawse joinery business in Aberdeen. The business currently operates under the Mansell brand.
A Balfour Beatty spokesman told Construction Enquirer: “Due to a significant downturn in activity levels Mansell has put forward a proposal to close its Hall and Tawse Joinery workshop located in Aberdeen.
“Mansell is currently undertaking a consultation with employees regarding this proposal so it would be inappropriate to comment further at this time.”
Balfour is currently restructuring its UK construction services division with up to 1,500 jobs at risk.
The contractor is believed to be reorganising the construction services division into three main work streams – regional building and civils, regional M&E and infrastructure. Meanwhile Building reports that the company
Is focusing on restructuring around “three main pillars” of business: regional building and civils; regional M&E; and major infrastructure. The firm’s UK construction services arm includes contractor Mansell, Balfour Beatty Construction, Balfour Beatty Civil Engineering and Balfour Beatty Engineering Services.
