LONDON, March 24 (Reuters) - Britain's BT said on
Wednesday it would pay 59,000 frontline workers a 1,500 pound
($2,055) special bonus to recognise their efforts to keep
customers and the country connected during the pandemic.
The broadband and mobile provider said there was no change
in its full-year financial outlook as a result of the bonus,
which will comprise an immediate 1,000 pound cash payment and
500 pounds in shares after three years.
BT has frozen pay across the company and is in unresolved
discussions with trade unions over its transformation and
modernisation plans.
