Go-Centric, based on Renfield Street, ceased trading 'immediately' on Thursday, leaving around 600 call centre employees in limbo.
A Glasgow-based firm awarded millions in government contracts despite warnings about its owners credentials has gone bust leaving hundreds of staff out of work.
The 'business process outsourcer' was given almost £10 million from the Scottish Government to manage Test and Protect contact tracing services during the pandemic but furloughed staff after taking on the work, reports the Sunday Mail.The UK Government granted Go-Centric a £1.4 million contract to run the Warm Home Discount Scheme, which it was still working on when it stopped trading last week.
A spokeswoman for Go-centric said 250 of the 600 staff had been able to find work in other firms and claimed the company was actively looking for alternative work for the remaining staff. NHS National Services Scotland , which contracted Go-centric during the pandemic, confirmed it had completed its work and was no longer supplying the NHS in Scotland.
