GPMU deputy general secretary Tony Burke says negotiations with Polestar are at a "delicate stage" over proposals to cut 32 jobs at its Chromoworks plant in Nottingham (PrintWeek, 5 October).

Polestar is known to be considering proposals, involving overtime and wage awards, that have been submitted by the Chromoworks GPMU chapel.
