More than 200 jobs are at risk after two firms based in Motherwell announced they are closing.<\/p>\n
Resideo intends to transfer its production to Brno in the Czech Republic and Nagykanizsa in Hungary, as these facilities have lower operational costs.<\/p>\n
The group manufactures a range of products, including thermostats, plumbing components for boilers and heat pumps, timers and heating controls. Approximately 116 jobs are at risk if the closure goes ahead.<\/p>\n
The adjacent Honeywell site is also set to be shut, with the loss of a further 91 jobs. The company \u2013 which specialises in the design and manufacturing of electronic hardware and systems \u2013 has proposed to primarily transfer work to Poole in England.<\/p>\n
Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said: \u201cScotland can\u2019t continue to haemorrhage manufacturing jobs. It\u2019s simply unsustainable.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe decision by both Resideo and Honeywell to close the joint site, and to transfer the work out of Scotland is unforgivable. Government needs to intervene and ministers must protect jobs and communities. They need to act now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Unite is calling for the Scottish and UK governments to explore all options to retain jobs at both companies.<\/p>\n
The union says the potential loss of this combined manufacturing capacity is significant in the context of Scotland\u2019s just-transition ambitions.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A Resideo spokesperson said: \u201cEvery business has to continue to adapt to remain competitive. Following a consultation process, we are moving our manufacturing operations from Newhouse to two of our other factories in Europe \u2013 Brno, Czech Republic, and Nagykanizsa, Hungary.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur continued focus is on supporting impacted colleagues, and starting the work needed to deliver the change.\u201d<\/p>\n
A comment from Honeywell is expected.<\/p>\n
