Cadbury Ireland has said business reviews will continue at the company as it implements a plan to reduce its Coolock workforce by 450 in the next two to three years.
The company announced this morning that it is to reduce its global workforce of more than 55,000 by 7,500. That announcement does not bring additional bad news for the company's 1,500 Irish workers, after October's initial announcement of the 450 job cuts here.
However, reviews of Cadbury operations will continue, the company said today.
"As with every organisation, we will need to maintain this momentum of change and continue to review our total business to ensure that we remain on track and are in a position to compete strongly both internally and externally," a spokeswoman said.
"We are pleased that earlier this year we reached agreement on a radical change, restructuring and investment programme which when fully implemented is intended to significantly improve the competitiveness of the Coolock factory."
