Unions demand reassurance for hard hit Bombardier Belfast workers

UNIONS are demanding reassurance for “hard-hit” Irish workers after aerospace firm Bombardier announced it will be selling off operations yesterday.

The company said it will divest its Belfast and Morocco businesses in a move to “optimise its global manufacturing footprint.”

Bombardier employs around 3,600 staff in its five factories in the north of Ireland.
