Due to the re-alignment of processing facilities, 791 people had to be retrenched. The wage-earning staff was consulted through processes that involved CEPPAWU & DUFUAWA while the salaried staff was consulted on an individual basis. York had also embarked on a remedial action plan to assist all retrenched individuals through interventions, such as re- skilling of existing and retrenched staff and facilitation of counseling to promote skills and abilities of retrenched staff. York and IDC have been in discussions with DTI with regards to possible funding to support the above mentioned actions.
