A trade union representing staff at Shannon Airport has criticised management there for the nature of their engagement with workers.
SIPTU aviation sector organiser Neil McGowan told the Oireachtas COVID-19 Committee that his union wants Shannon’s separation from the DAA to be reversed.

Mr. McGowan also insisted that the union wouldn’t accept Shannon plans for cost-cutting measures including redundancies and, in particular, pay cuts.
