Sinn Féin TD for Kerry Pa Daly has expressed his disappointment at the news that Borg Warner in Tralee will close with the loss of 210 jobs. 

Teachta Daly said:

“Borg Warner has been in business in Tralee for thirty years and has a long established workforce of 210 people. 

“Staff were informed at a lunchtime meeting today that the plant is shutting down and most of these jobs will be gone by the end of 2020, with the plant shutting its doors by March 2021. This is a massive disappointment.

“Focus now must be on the workers involved and their families, with every effort made to support them to ensure they receive a fair redundancy package, as well as retraining for future employment opportunities.”
