Hundreds of M&S agency staff told to stay off work after cyberattack
Marks & Spencer has ordered hundreds of agency workers at its main distribution centre to stay at home as it grapples with the unfolding impact of a cyberattack on Britain’s best-known retailer.
Sky News has learnt that roughly 200 people who had been due to undertake shift work at M&S’s vast Castle Donington clothing and homewares logistics centre in the East Midlands have been told not to come in amid the escalating crisis. The retailer’s own employees have been told to go into work as usual.
Online orders and contactless payments have been disrupted since last week following an “extensive” cyberattack, although the retailer has provided few details of the nature of the incident.
