Siptu urges Brinks Ireland to help save 200 jobs

Trade union Siptu said it hopes to save some of the 200 jobs that Brinks Ireland said will go in the Republic, but only if the contracts are transferred to rival operators.

Brinks Ireland is closing its cash in transit business in the Republic and is trying to sell its business in the North, according to Siptu official Brendan Carr.

Mr Carr said 130 jobs will be lost in Dublin, while 70 job will go in Cork and Galway.
