GMB Union, representing workers at Derbyshire based Denby Pottery, has today responded to the news that company administrators intend to proceed with redundancies at the company.
Craig Thomson, GMB Organiser, said:
“Denby is a British icon, producing some of the world’s finest ceramics.
“It is shameful and totally avoidable that administrators are stripping this company of its most important asset, its highly skilled potters.
“We will resist and fight for workers for their voice to be heard.
“We won’t accept company administrators fast tracking job losses and breaching legal obligations to close the doors as soon as possible."
“Government must intervene, the collapse of a British icon will be on their watch if they don’t”.
