Staff have been retained at Manchester in order to comply with the winding down of the airline side of things to ensure compliance with CAA rules. They are being paid for by the administrators - my friend (who lost his job) has had numerous job offers from other airlines via Linkdin. He's looking for work locally though and does not want to re-locate.
Zero - "Minimum Hours" or "Zero Hours" - people on Zero hours are now treated as employees. I was on Zero hours in the NHS and I actually rolled up annual leave entitlements (I took the money) and paid pension contributions. One of the guys I worked with was on a minimum hours contract i.e. he was contracted to work a minimum number of hours every year. He was treated like other employees.
