Supply chain workers: raising the cost of Brexit

If you want a concise and accurate summary of one key reason why Brexit presents such a challenge to the UK’s logistics sector, this excellent op-ed piece by Logistics Manager editor in chief Mallory Davies is hard to beat. Some 23-34% of workers in retail logistics (and that’s just retail) are EU nationals and, 16 months on from the referendum result, their employment and living status is still no nearer being resolved – creating a level of personal uncertainty that can be agonising to live with. The UK really has to sort this out; it is grossly unfair and services absolutely nobody’s interest.
