While 1,800 people working in them are expected to be able to find new jobs, the firm added it expects 2,900 redundancies as a result of the move. "Dixons Carphone will go well beyond legal obligations in financial and other support for all affected colleagues," the firm said in a statement. "Today's tough decision is an essential part of that, the next step in making our UK Mobile business a success for customers, colleagues and other shareholders." Today's changes do not affect the 70 Carphone Warehouse stores in the Republic of Ireland or any operations internationally.
