Initially, the business intended to close one blast furnace by the end of June and the other by September.
However, Port Talbot employees have been informed that the corporation can no longer guarantee that there will be enough resources available to ensure safe and steady operations due to the strike that began on July 8.
The Unite union claimed that Tata’s announcement to halt or shut down the blast furnaces three months sooner than planned was just the most recent in a string of warnings that would not stop them.
The Welsh government declared that it cannot and will not allow the two blast furnaces to close.
Due to the company’s intentions to eliminate thousands of jobs, the Unite union declared last week that roughly 1,500 employees will go on an indefinite strike on July 8.
Unite’s national lead, Onay Kasab, said on Radio Wales Breakfast that the union was scheduled to speak with the corporation about safety measures during the walkout.
Mr. Kasab denied that the union had offered the business a chance to close the location.
“With 2,800 jobs at stake, what other choice do we have? He remarked, “We have repeatedly advised Tata to hold off on forming a new Labour government and waiting for a general election.”
