GERMAN electronic component manufacturers, Kostal, announced its decision to implement a phased resumption of operations at its Abbeyfeale plant in County Limerick this week.
Last month, the company, which employ over 1,000 staff in its Limerick and Cork plants, ceased operations because of the Covid-19 crisis.
This Wednesday, Kostal said it had taken the decision to implement a phased resumption in response to a gradual return of demand for their products in markets where automotive production has started to resume.
“We expect up to 10 per cent of our staff back on site this week. Both sites will be implementing and strictly adhering to social distancing and other measures HSE guidelines.”
