Joint statement from Huw Irranca-Davies MS, Sarah Murphy MS, Chris Elmore MP, Huw David following the news from Zimmer Biomet

There are many families in Bridgend and Ogmore affected by this breaking news.

Watch below my interview on BBC Radio Wales: calling on Zimmer Biomet to sit down with the union Unite Cymru and with Welsh Government to protect these vital #Bridgend jobs. The workers and their families and local communities deserve no less.

We are in contact with the unions and workforce, Welsh Government and UK government and the employer, and will update you with any further information.

If any constituents affected need to contact me and my team directly, I’m on huw.irranca-davies@senedd.wales and 01656737777
