Meanwhile, he assured employees that they are working out something for them before they officially close.

“Our present focus is to ensure a transparent consultation process with our staff members and their representatives after which we will update you about the agreed next steps. It is difficult to anticipate timing of the consultation process but please be assured that we will revert to you as soon as we have collective clarity on the way forward.”
