New Waterford Stanley proposal mooted

A new proposal has been put forward in an effort to end the threat of lay-offs at the Waterford Stanley plant.

The company has put its 120 workers on protective notice due to a dispute over plans to relocate from Bilberry to the Waterford Business Park.

The dispute centred on workers' demands for a relocation payment.

The latest proposal was presented to management and the TEEU following talks at the Labour Relations Commission this week and is due to be voted on by the workforce tomorrow.
