Avaya to cut 64 Dublin jobs
Friday, July 30 16:03:13
Telecoms company Avaya is cutting 64 jobs at its operation in Sandyford in Dublin as it consolidates its operations to save money.
The company is to centralise its Irish operations in Galway in a separate business that it owns.
Staff in Sandyford were told they would be paid statutory redundancy. The company is now entering a consultation period with staff.
The workers were also informed that they would lose their positions on the last day in September. In addition to the 64 job losses, another 34 people will be transferred to the company's Galway operation. About 40 people will remain in Sandyford.
The company has received grants from IDA Ireland. Today, a spokesman for the IDA said there was a procedure in place in situations where any company owed any money to the State agency.
Avaya's history in Ireland goes back to 1985 when AT and T established a manufacturing operation in Bray, Co Wicklow.
In 1996 AT&T spun-off some parts of the business, including the Bray operation, into a new entity called Lucent Technologies.
In October 2000, Lucent Technologies spun-off its telephone system and software business to create Avaya Inc.
