Siptu to meet with 180 M&S staff set to lose jobs
The news, which came on the same day as the announcement of a further 102 jobs losses within Superquinn, was met with dismay by staff and alarm by opposition parties and trade unions amid fears of a wider decline in the retail sector.
Marks and Spencer said it would be closing its stores in Mullingar and Tallaght, as well as its Simply Food shops in Naas and Dun Laoghaire. The stores did not open yesterday, as the company said staff were only informed of the proposed closures yesterday morning.
