I move amendment No. 2:
(a) To insert the following after “the short-, medium-, and long-term;”:
“- of the 240 people working at the Cork mail centre, up to two-thirds are employed on a part-time basis;”; and
(b) To delete all words after “calls on the Government to:” and substitute the following:
“- ensure the immediate publication of the McKinsey report, which advised An Post on the future of its business, in order to transparently establish the supposed grounds for the closure of Cork mail centre;
- stress to An Post the importance of prioritising voluntary severance for permanent staff based in the mail centre and also in other areas of An Post, in order to maximise redeployment opportunities;
- instruct An Post to maintain the current pay and conditions, as well as providing adequate re-skilling, where necessary, of affected workers who are subsequently redeployed within the company;
- ensure that An Post provides enhanced severance terms and addresses any pension implications in the event of compulsory redundancies; and
- recognise the precarious circumstance of those temporary workers employed at Cork mail centre and to demand that An Post provide generous ex-gratia payments to those affected upon release.”
