Syngenta has begun formal consultation with trade unions and employees over a proposal to cease operations at its Grangemouth site, putting 377 jobs at risk. The company said the site remains more expensive to operate than other production facilities and that identified savings would not close the competitiveness gap. It said alternative options would be considered during the consultation.
