For several years Quadron have delivered maintenance services to Charter’s properties across South East Wales. As soon the announcement was made, Charter realised the termination of the contract would result in the loss of employment for 44 members of staff who worked on Charter’s properties. This would have potentially caused major disruption to maintenance services to Charter’s 4,200 homes. Charter moved quickly to directly employ the 44 members to form an in-house maintenance department.

Kathryn Edwards, Corporate Director said “We had to take immediate action in order to safeguard not only the 44 jobs, but also the service provided to our tenants. The Board were very supportive of our decision. We are now looking forward to building on the service provided by Quadron staff in the past”.
