Drapers - M&S logistics staff told to stay at home following cyber-incident


The order reportedly solely applies to company staff, which make up an estimated 20% of all staff at M&S’s clothes and homewares logistics centre in Fort Donington, East Midlands, Sky Newsreported earlier right now (28 April).

The 900,000 sq ft distribution centre opened in 2012, and helps most of M&S’s on-line clothes and residential orders.

Workers members employed straight by M&S are reportedly working as regular.

On Friday (25 April), M&S suspended taking on-line orders on its web site and app because it continued to grapple with the unfolding impression of a cyber incident which befell on 21 April, affecting in-store contactless funds and click-and-collect order processing.

The retailer mentioned on Friday it “proceed[s] to handle the incident proactively”, including that customers can proceed to browse M&S’s product providing on-line, with out making purchases, and all shops are working as regular.

Drapers has contacted M&S for remark.
