1,100 Bridgend Ford jobs to go says union
"We are actively seeking urgent assurances from Ford - both in the UK and US," said a spokesperson. "We have worked very closely with Ford over a number of years to secure a future for the Bridgend plant, and we remain committed to supporting these vital manufacturing jobs." The Unite union has called on Ford bosses to produce a five-year plan for the Bridgend factory. "Len McCluskey from the union said:"Unite members are committed to Ford, the Welsh Assembly is committed to Ford, all we need now is for Ford to commit to its workforce. Five months ago, Ford announced Dragon production would be cut to 125,000 engines a year and investment would reduce from £181m to £100m. The Welsh Government promised £15m state aid on the condition 500 jobs would be secured.
