An RSA review has put 120 UK job roles at risk.

Staff from several RSA regional offices were told the news yesterday, an RSA spokesman said in a statement.

“We have every sympathy with our affected employees and will be working closely with the unions and impacted staff to see if we can redeploy as many of those as possible into other roles within the business,” he added.

RSA has been on a drive to cut costs since the start of the economic downturn. In 2009, it announced plans to cut 1,200 jobs as part of a £70m expenses savings target for the UK.
