SIPTU members have expressed their deepest sympathies to two workers who were seriously injured at the Stryker plant at Anngrove in Carrigtwohill, County Cork, yesterday (Tuesday 18th April). SIPTU Sector Organiser, Neil McGowan said: “The two workers and their families are uppermost in our thoughts and all SIPTU members at the plant wish them a speedy and full recovery from the serious injuries they suffered. “We will await the outcome of an investigation by the Health and Safety Authority before we comment further on the incident. “We have today written to management seeking an urgent meeting to discuss the safety concerns of workers on the three Stryker sites in Carrigtwohill. We want to ensure that the best safety systems possible are in place across the sites.” SIPTU Organiser, Allen Dillon, added: "Our members have previously raised health and safety concerns and we have been seeking engagement with management on these matters since 2019. We want to take a collaborative approach in order to ensure the safest possible environment for all workers on the Cork sites."
