The Labour Court recommended no change to Cadbury (Ireland) Limited's voluntary severance proposals for its Rathmore plant, where plans to contract out transport and distribution and introduce the Vision 2000 rationalisation programme would reduce 17 manufacturing and 28 distribution jobs. The recommendation was dated 3 October 2000. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union sought better terms, arguing that the proposals were inadequate for workers with medium or long service. Cadbury said conciliation had increased its original offer by an average of £7,000 per worker and that it had used the full provision for severance payments at Rathmore.
