Aviance to meet SIPTU tomorrow over rescue plan for Irish jobs

Date Released: 09 Dec 2008

Late last week, Aviance advised SIPTU and the Aviance workforce that it intended to close its ground handling operation at Dublin Airport.  However, following discussions with the Aviance senior management team, it was agreed that SIPTU would provide a business plan in an effort to secure the continuance of Aviance at Dublin Airport.This afternoon SIPTU’s Civil Aviation Sectoral Organiser Dermot O’Loughlin confirmed that, “Aviance has advised us that it is giving active consideration to our survival proposals and a decision will be made in the next 24 hours.  We are hopeful that this episode will have a successful outcome for all the workers at the company”.
