Flahavan’s workers at the company’s Waterford site vote unanimously at an extraordinary general meeting (EGM) to ballot on possible industrial action, according to reports.
The company says discussions are under way with employees and their representatives about a new pay agreement and related working arrangements. After the EGM, workers proceed through a ballot process that would determine whether industrial action could be taken, depending on the outcome.
Both outlets frame the vote as connected to pay negotiations and working arrangements, with no details provided on the specific proposals or the timeline for any potential disruption. The reporting focuses on the decision to hold a ballot rather than on any action already carried out.
