Vita Cortex resolution talks to resume Friday

TALKS aimed at ending a month-long sit-in by the Vita Cortex workers in Cork will resume on Friday after they finished last night without a resolution.

The Labour Relations Commission (LRC) spent almost seven hours locked in conciliation talks with the workers and the company, who were in separate meeting rooms at the Carrigaline Court Hotel.

The state’s top industrial relations trouble-shooters, LRC chief executive Kieran Mulvey and director of conciliation Kevin Foley, declined to comment afterwards on the details of the discussions.
