Enhanced severance offered to Little Island mail staff

The Labour Court has recommended enhancements to the severance packages of those affected by the closure of An Post’s Mail Centre in Little Island, Cork.

However, while the union representing postal workers has described the enhanced terms as “most favourable”, a breakaway group of staff at the centre has vowed to continue its campaign of opposition to the facility’s closure, and said it will continue to urge the Communications Workers’ Union to follow suit.
