SIPTU representatives have engaged with management at the Teva plant in Waterford concerning threatened redundancies, which could impact members at the pharmaceutical manufacturer.
In a statement, SIPTU Manufacturing Divisional Organiser, Neil McGowan, said: “The company has recently announced its intention to implement a number of redundancies at the plant. This is expected to impact the positions of up to 19 SIPTU members. Union representatives have begun the statutory period of consultation with management on this proposal. As always, SIPTU will aim to protect the jobs of our members and ensure they are adequately represented in this situation.”
