M&S tells agency staff to stay home as fallout of cyberattack continues

Hundreds of agency workers at Marks & Spencer have been told not to come into work as the retailer continues to deal with the fallout of a cyber attack.

Staff have been instructed to stay at home rather than come into work at the retailer’s main clothing and homeware warehouse in the East Midlands, Sky News has reported.

Some 200 agency staff had been due to work at the Castle Donington logistics centre, the broadcaster reported, citing a source close to M&S.

Agency staff make up around 20 per cent of the site’s workforce, the source said, adding that M&S employees were told to come in as usual.

M&S have been contacted for a comment.
