Alliance Considering White Collar Redundancies

In the last year more than two hundred Israel based Alliance Tire staff have been laid off, and on December 24 Israeli financial newspaper Globes reported the possibility that the same fate may now await “dozens” of white collar employees and production support staff. It would appear those employees not covered by the collective agreement signed between Alliance and Israel’s labour federation in 2008 are most likely to bear the brunt of any redundancies – the agreement forbids Alliance from firing any staff covered by the deal without first going through a pre-agreed process.
