Aluminium jobs at risk

The future of 450 workers at Novelis Aluminum works is up in the air after bosses spent yesterday talking to union chiefs about how to cope with falling demand.

Executives from the Swiss based company were at the plant in Rogerstone, Newport to discuss making the plant a viable operation, but they refused to rule out closure.

The plant's closure would be another substantial blow to manufacturing in South Wales.
