Retail staff in Strabane have been put through eight weeks of ‘hell’ as confusion remains about what is to happen to more than 30 jobs in the town, a local union representative has said.
Supermarket chain Lidl is to move into Strabane retail park at the end of July, but while some companies have said they will move to new locations in the town centre others have yet to confirm plans and have informed staff they are to be made redundant.
20 jobs at the New Look store in the Co Tyrone town remain under threat, as an urgent meeting was requested by local councillors to help the company find new premises.
