A CALL centre dealing with bin complaints will cut its hours as more than half of its staff are off sick.
Brighton and Hove City Council’s environment contact centre phone lines will only open between 10am and 3pm until “further notice”, a spokesman said.
Eight members of staff usually deal with rubbish complaints at the centre but fewer than half are currently at work.
A city council spokesman said the reduced opening hours were not linked to “organisational changes” agreed between itself and the GMB union at the council’s Cityclean rubbish depot in Hollingdean.
