Waterford to lose 38 jobs as tool-maker plans closure

WATERFORD is facing further job losses as German industrial products and services company Gühring Group proposes to wind down its operations over the next two years.

It is envisaged that a total of 38 jobs will be lost in the phased closing of its manufacturing plant, which is scheduled to begin next year.

The company has a base in the IDA-run industrial estate in Waterford, where hundreds of jobs have been lost in recent weeks.
