Jackson saddened by big job losses at Indesit


News | Community

Peterborough MP Stewart Jackson has expressed his sadness and regret at the news today (15 May) that the Indesit Company - based at Woodston - is to shed 420 jobs in their refrigeration manufacturing plant from October 2008 when they end production there.

Mr Jackson was briefed this morning by the firm's Manufacturing Managing Director Carlos Ramos and he will meet with senior managers at the business in the next week to discuss the news and the firm's future plans for the rest of its city workforce.

Stewart Jackson said: "I am very sad at this terrible news which will affect hundreds of my constituents in Peterborough. It will naturally be a very worrying time for them and their families.

“We are talking about well-trained and skilled people and I do hope that jobs will be available to them at Indesit perhaps in another capacity or with other city businesses.

“I hope to meet with managers at Indesit next week to ensure that they are doing everything to help those made redundant and safeguard the other jobs at their UK headquarters on site."

Stewart Jackson was elected in May 2005 to represent the Peterborough constituency in the House of Commons. To find out more about him, his views and activities, visit his website at www.stewartjackson.org.uk
