Strike Action At Cadbury's Plant In Dublin Suspended
Strike action has been suspended at the Cadbury's plant in Coolock, Dublin.
Members of unions Siptu and Unite suspended the action to facilitate talks and a ballot on proposals aimed at resolving the dispute concerning outsourcing at the company.
SIPTU Sector Organiser, John Dunne, said: "Following discussions, the Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) has put forward proposals which achieve cost savings at the company but do not involve the outsourcing of jobs. On the basis that outsourcing is now off the table, SIPTU and Unite members have decided to suspend their strike action.
"Siptu and Unite will convene a joint shop stewards meeting and then proceed to ballot our members on these proposals."
