A Union official has called on management at Sligo Airport to engage in 'meaningful discussions' in an effort to ensure that industrial action being taken by SIPTU firefighters at the facility does not escalate

SIPTU says the action is being taken over management's refusal to engage in collective bargaining.

The action will involve a ban on overtime and maintenance work, which is expected to slow airport operations but not stop them entirely.

SIPTU organiser Andrew Clune, says Airport management were notified well in advance of today's action
