Emerge call centre to lay off some local staff

Little over a week after declaring plans of an expansion, Emerge BPO, a Business Process Outsourcing Company, has announced that it will be laying off some staff from its local operations.

The company, which has been operating in Guyana since 2008, in a press statement related that the decision to reduce its staff in Guyana follows a request from one of its international clients, however, the company noted that it will maintain its operations locally, as well as in Canada and the USA.

“Emerge BPO continues to be transparent with its employees and will do everything it can to assist with referrals and placements to help make the transition for all affected employees as smooth as possible, including providing full separation remunerations, and other benefits.  The company shall continue to do all in its power to minimise these jobs displacements,” Emerge stated.
