Pickets were set up at the plants this week . Last week Coca Cola HBC drivers and warehouse staff received letters from three private transport companies offering them new employment at greatly disimproved pay and working conditions and containing threats of redundancy.

Earlier this year the company announced 130 jobs in the transport division would be outsourced to private transport companies saying that outsourcing is necessary to cut costs and safeguard other jobs ... read full story / add a comment

Dublin activists today took part in a march organised by the Dublin Port Workers Group, which have been locked in a bitter dispute with their employer Peel Ports Group. The dockers have held out for over seven weeks, and were forced to strike after their employer imposed force redundancies and introduced new contracts with pay cuts and worse conditions. Despite the company employing scabs from Britain, and a security firm made up of ex-SAS operatives, the communities of Irishtown, East Wall and Ringsend have stood by the dockers in support. The company also took a high court injunction preventing effective picketing. Dock workers from across Europe have sent messages of solidarity and after pledges of similar action, Rotterdam was shut down in support of the action in Dublin today. ... read full story / add a comment
