PHONE-IN 

PwC has hit back at comments by Lord Alan Sugar in which he branded its staff "lazy, after the accountancy giant said workers could take Friday afternoons off over summer. The firm made the offer to its 22,000 UK staff last week on the condition they get their work done by lunchtime. In a tweet, the Apprentice host and businessman called the move a "joke", and that “There is no way people work as hard or productive as when they had to turn up at a work location”. PwC said it had worked well in trials. And individual staff members criticised Lord Sugar for being "out of touch".
