Sinn Féin supports workers sit-in at Target Depot

Sinn Féin Cllr Chris O'Leary has called for a speedy end to the dispute at the Target Depot at Little Island where 18 workers are currently involved in a sit-in having been left go by the company which owes wages to the workers, speaking today after visiting the workers Cllr O'Leary said: ' I would call on the The Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Richard Bruton to step in at this stage and ensure there is an immediate resolution to the dispute at Target and ensure that the workers would get whatever entitlements & benefits they are owed, we do not want to see another dispute in Cork where workers have to endure a long sit-in to achieve what's owed to them, situations like at Target & previously Vita Cortex, La Senza & Game are becoming all to common & Sinn Féin has long called for more protection for workers who lose their jobs often without due notice, Sinn Féin will be supporting the workers at Target until there is a just end to their dispute'
