|September 12, 2025
WELSH Water (Dwr Cymru) has announced a major restructuring programme which, over the next two years, could see up to 500 job losses - representing around 12% of its current workforce of 4,000.
-
‘This will come as a blow to staff and a legitimate concern to Welsh Water's three million customers. However, major job losses at the company are not without precedent, with around 300 jobs shed during its 2015-20 five-year regulatory-approved period.

Welsh Water, a private company, was once part of the listed Welsh utilities group Hyder.
