Workers were due to begin strike action yesterday over management plans to force pay cuts and reduce workers’ entitlements.
The workers trade union Mandate was last night invited to attend a meeting with the Commission at 15:00 pm today in Dublin in a bid to resolve the issues.
A spokesperson for Mandate told just-food: “It [suspension] was on the basis that the company and the union go into the LRC with no preconditions. So basically the talks are a fresh start.
“Mandate is hoping that all the agreements in place with Tesco at the moment will be continued.”
