I would like to thank the Deputy for raising this important matter on behalf of workers based in Drogheda whose company has notified my Department in recent times of potential redundancies.
I can confirm that Enterprise Ireland is in ongoing communication with the company in question and is closely monitoring developments. The company is in the early stages of establishing a workforce consultation process with employees whose jobs are potentially at risk.
Working with Enterprise Ireland, our objective is to help sustain both the company and employment in the area. In that regard, discussions have commenced in relation to the potential for relevant Enterprise Ireland assistance to address the current challenges being experienced by the company.
The employment services of the other State agencies, including Intreo, will be available to any impacted workers as they assess their options in the future.
