FRESH JOBS BLOW AT DERRY’S FUJITSU PLANT AS STAFF RECEIVE LETTERS ON FUTURE

STAFF fear job losses are on the cards at the Fujitsu technology plant in Derry.

Last month, the company announced plans to slash up to 1,800 jobs across all its plants on both sides of the Irish Sea.

The job cuts were to start in 2017 and would be phased in over the next 12 to 18 months.

Now some staff at its Derry offices have received letters, warning them that their jobs could be under threat.

Fujitsu employ 800 people in the North across four sites in Derry and Belfast.

But it is still not known what percentage of the 800 staff her will lose their jobs.

It has yet again raised more uncertainty for workers and their families as they approach Christmas.
