Heinz Could Cut 250 Jobs
It has been reported that up to 250 jobs in the UK and Ireland could be cut by food giant Heinz.
According to RTE, the company is planning to restructure the business which could affect jobs at its Dundalk plant in Co Louth.
In a statement, the firm said it wanted to establish a management structure that will better position the company for accelerated growth in a very competitive global market.
The 2,600-strong workforce would be reduced by 10%.
Heinz added that the plans are subject to a consultation process with both employees and representatives.
In the US, the firm recently cut 600 jobs.
