ICTU calls for unions to back Vita Cortex march

The Irish Congress of Trade Unions (ICTU) have called on affiliated unions across Munster to back a march in support of the Vita Cortex workers in Cork tomorrow.

The rallying call came last night as the 32 workers begin day 57 of their sit-in at the former foam factory today.

They have been engaged in a sit-in since the company closed on December 16 without paying their redundancy. They have a combined total of 847 years’ service.
