Seven job losses are imminent at the Randox plant in Dungloe
In a statement to Highland Radio News, the company has confirmed seven positions in the manufacturing engineering department have been provisionally identified for redundancy, but affected staff may apply for positions elsewhere within the factory, for which they are still recruiting.
Randox says the redundancies are a part of what they are terming a structural review of the company, but is stressing the company remains committed to Dungloe.
Councillor Micheal Choilm MacGiolla Easbuig is seeking further clarity from Randox:
