Tesco workers in Letterkenny to be balloted on industrial action

Workers at Tesco Letterkennny are among the company’s 12 thousand workers nationwide to be ballot for industrial action.
Their union Mandate says the company refused to accept a Labour Court recommendation on wage increases and is attempting to force significant pay cuts on staff.
The Labour Court said all Tesco workers are entitled to a two percent pay rise and share a bonus payment.
But the supermarket giant has told more than 1,000 workers here they won’t be getting the pay rise – and will instead face cuts of at least 15 percent.
