WORKERS at Southampton Airport are today fearing for their jobs after owner BAA admitted it was considering staff cuts under "an efficiency review".
Reports the company was considering axing as many as 2,000 jobs at its seven UK airports were denied by a spokesman who said no decision had yet been taken on the number of positions to go.
No frontline security or customer service staff will be affected, with the axe mainly falling on back office positions.
More than 200 people are employed in Southampton by BAA, which was taken over by Spanish company Ferrovial in June last year in a multibillion pound deal.
