rossiemai People fear they may be the next to make redundant. This sentence doesn't make any sense at all. Redundant means the property of doing the same thing more than once.

Welcome to English Forums, Rossiemai!

I would say: "People fear they may be the next to be made redundant."

Make redundant = "having lost your job because your employer no longer needs you"

Cheers,
