Esb Strike Is Averted

ESB STRIKE IS AVERTED

Businesses and homes across County Wexford won’t face electricty blackouts for Christmas.

A planned strike by ESB workers has been averted after the two sides reached agreement at the Labour Relations Commission.

The row centred on a one point six billion euro deficit in the company’s pension fund.

The ESB says there will be no effect on the company’s balance sheet as a result of the settlement – but unions say that’s not the case.

Business groups are welcoming the agreement.
