MANDATE union in Connolly shoe strike
MANAGEMENT IN CONNOLLY SHOES HAS SACKED TWO LONG SERVING AND LOYAL MEMBERS OF STAFF (PAT BYRNE, 38 YEARS SERVICE AND DAMIAN KEEGAN, 30 YEARS SERVICE). FOUR MANDATE MEMBERS ARE ON STRIKE WITH A COMBINED TOTAL OF SERVICE TO CONNOLLY'S SHOES OF 110 YEARS.
These loyal employees have been dismissed:
• Without any notice
• Without just cause
• Without compensation.
The company has refused all genuine attempts to resolve the dispute and management has also rejected an offer by the Labour Relations Commission (LRC) to convene a conciliation conference.
Mandate Trade Union is hosting a public rally in support of its four members on strike. We would like to ask you to support the workers in their fight for justice. For more information on the dispute go to www.mandate.ie
