Greencore workers ‘glad’ to return to Labour Court

GREENCORE and its workers’ unions are to be brought back to the Labour Court, in the coming days, to debate the redundancy entitlements of the former workers.

Pat Guilfoyle of the Technical Engineering and Electrical Union (TEEU) last night said he had been told the Labour Court was to recall both sides, to help hammer out what package the workers are entitled to from the company, which closed its Mallow factory on May 12.

That is despite the fact that the court has already had a full hearing, issued a recommendation on how the dispute should be resolved and even given two clarifications on its decision.
