Portadown Factory Jobs To Be Lost
The well known firm of Seagoe Technologies has announced that 40 jobs are to go at its factory in Portadown, County Armagh.
The company, which produces storage heaters, employs between 320 and 350 people.
Union spokesman Sean McKeever said staff were very worried: "The mood is downbeat, all employees are concerned.
"The company has put out for voluntary redundancies, but there is a real danger that if that can't be met there will be enforced redundancies."
Seagoe Technologies is said to be one of the world's leading manufacturers of static night storage heating solutions for domestic and commercial applications, with some 40 years experience in their design and production.
Seagoe has achieved a 70% share of the world market and is part of the Glen Dimplex Group.
