Workers protested at the Arntz factory last year
|
About 170 workers at Arntz Belting in Londonderry fear their jobs will be transferred to a similar factory in Romania.
They were speaking after a planning application for housing at the Pennyburn plant was put in a local paper.
Last year, workers at the factory, which makes fan belts, went on strike in a row over redundancy payments.
In 2005, about 30 jobs were lost at the factory
The parent company, Arntz Optibelt, also has a plant - A&M Belting - at Letterkenny in County Donegal.
The Arntz Optibelt group employs about 1,200 employees around the world.
