Not sure how big a place it is but a lot of people are now without a job
When I worked there when it was Thompson Plastics there was two large factories. The factory I worked in was for caravan parts and the other was car parts. That was twenty years ago and probably changed now.
 
The boss is being praised for his swift action to get everyone out of the building, the fire service just confirmed everyone is accounted for.
Didn't they make the shower trays for Swift caravans ? The CEO of Advanced Plastics on Sutton Ind. Estate must be on the phone as I type this. Opportunity knocks.

I got made redundant Chazz and we had three interviews to change their minds and save your job. I'd had two before going to see family in the States i'd booked the year before. My last interview was the following Monday on my return. I knew it was pointless, once you'd been picked you was gone.
If you didn't meet your interviews day you lost your redundancy money so I had to come home from the States. My cousin offered me a job over there but couldn't take it. It turned out we had to claim our money from the Government which we got in three payments over a year. Think the pension thing happened after i'd left.

The only place on Hedon Rd i've worked is Armstrong's behind Oriental pub, I only ever worked for Thompson's at the Hessle factory.
