What will happen to the employees from the battery plant shutting at SHTC - will all employees be redundant or will at least some of them be moved to another location?
I am also interested in your opinion on whether the closure of that plant was really necessary, could things have been fixed at Stonehouse?

So, so true. From what I can gather zero communication and lackadaisical attention to staff. The usual. I would not be suprised if no shopfloor roles would be offered as the system seems to be in the usual chaos. I bet Le Peuch will 'transform' this into a PR triumph. This mirrors the time I worked there.
The current management of SBT seem to be trying to get there final little bit of enjoyment of making the remaining staff as miserable as possible.
Zero communication regarding available positions in the dying manufacturing center of SDRM.
They could go to HR but considering the email sent from the head of HR today, with TXT abbreviations, spelling mistakes, and the grammar and punctuation of a special needs student, I wouldn’t bother.
I assume the culture of bullying remains. This would make a great miniseries. I would avoid HR like the plague as they will never let you win.... Many have tried.
Absolutely incompetent management who does not know and undestand or even care what employees are doing on thier job. The place must be closed as it takes much more money compare to profits they make. Just business
Great Post some other roles being offered in Building A, plenty of back stabbing taking place, and management and HR clueless to staffing skill levels. I suppose the staff above shopfloor level will all be safe this is the normal pattern. Looking after their own little regard for the lower paid staff. Personally this has been the plan for many years, we are all Mushrooms kept in the dark and fed sh-t.
SHTC is dying will be glad when this is done and dusted, redundancies year after year such a caring not. Can't take it anymore.
The writing had been on the wall for years. SBT was doomed when China opened up. The managers claimed the plan was to keep SBT open and to have a duel supply but the was all lies. As for the culture it was local and had local management support they were part of the viscous culture. No SBT had been doomed for perhaps the last eight years. If not longer.
Dregs of positions left being offered but it’s likely to be mainly redundancies. The usual legal procedures of being seen to try and save jobs by offering low paid assembly workers roles such as customer services etc that they have zero chance of getting.
The closure of the plant has been necessary for years, along with the dismal of the regime that rules over it. Long time coming and good riddance.
