It all sounds quite disingenuous. The article says people will be doing a mixture of remote working and production shifts from Glasgow.
It's well over 2.5 hours to get between Aberdeen and Glasgow. Who is going
to want to do that?
I wonder if it isn't a con to force people out without paying them any redundancy.

I always presume anything from Personnel Department (or whatever name
they are using this week) to be disingenuous.

Could just mean they are going to use remote working but some people
might spend time away from home when needed?
