THERE are fears that jobs may be lost when a call centre is relocated to another area.
DFDS Seaways, which is based in Scandinavia House in Refinery Road, Parkeston, is undergoing a reorganisation.
John Crummie, UK managing director of DFDS Seaways, said: “We are completing the reorganisation of DFDS Seaways Ltd announced in May, which includes relocating the contact centre from Harwich to the office in North Shields.
“However, the route from Harwich to Esbjerg in Denmark remains an integral part of our business, and some of our staff will continue to work at Scandinavia House to service this route.”
About 150 people work at the three-storey office block, with a proportion working for the European haulage firm DSV and the rest working for DFDS Seaways.
