US health giant’s jobs move welcome boost for Castleisland

THE IDA, which has been strongly criticised in Kerry for not securing enough jobs for the county, yesterday came up with some good news.

Seventy jobs are to be created at Aetna Ireland, a global US health benefits company, in Castleisland.

Tánaiste and Enterprise, Trade and Employment Minister Mary Coughlan, who was in Castleisland, promised “a different dynamic” in job creation in her ministry and stressed the potential of the regions.
