KPMG reportedly offers £100 to workers in UK restructuring

KPMG has reportedly offered some laid-off workers an additional £100 in exchange for waiving certain legal rights, according to The Register, which cited an unnamed insider. The offer is part of restructuring in the UK that is expected to see around 200 workers leave the company.

Affected employees are expected to learn the outcome by email on October 9, 2026, according to the report. The unnamed worker told The Register that the proposed terms include payments marginally above statutory terms, alongside a nominal £100 for employees who waive their rights to appeal or bring claims.

The Register also reported that KPMG has not told affected workers its position on bonuses. Year-end bonuses are typically paid in January, and the report said employees who had been working toward a bonus for the past 10 months might not be eligible for one. These details were attributed to the publication’s unnamed source.

KPMG declined to answer The Register’s questions. TechRadar Pro said it had also sought clarification but had not received an immediate response. KPMG said the company was adapting its focus and structure as its market evolves, to ensure it has the skills to serve clients.
