Lay-Offs Announced By Cork Pharmaceutical
Co. Cork workers have suffered a further blow - as job losses are announced - a second set back which came after a tragic accident last month.
Pharmaceutical company Corden PharmaChem in Little Island announced its plans for temporary lay-offs, combined with reduced working hours for 61 of its 105 employees.
The decision came on the heels of an explosion at the plant last month, which left one man dead.
An internal investigation into the explosion is now nearing completion and the company hopes to resume production operations at the plant by July.
Cork has suffered a spate of bad news on employment, as last week, 47 job losses were announced at the Freescale design and innovation centre in the city.
The jobs are to go with the closure of the centre in Cork, which develops and produces new technology for mobile phones.
All of the 47 employees at the Freescale design and innovation centre at the Cork Airport Business Park are graduates.
It is understood the work currently undertaken in Cork will instead be done in the US in future.
