And around half of its staff are working on constructing parts for the sides, interdecks and roofs of buses for Alexander Dennis Ltd (ADL). One of the company's three buildings is dedicated to the work on buses. A notice of risk of redundancy was issued to employees on Friday. Speaking to The Courier, Greenfold Systems managing director Craig Waterson described ADL as a "sizeable customer", and said it was a "difficult situation" for the company. He said: "What happens with ADL remains to be seen. We would, of course, like a clearer answer but we're not going to get one any time soon. "A communication has been issued to staff essentially telling them that their jobs are at risk as a result of the ADL situation. "We will give another update when we know more. We are weighing up life with and without ADL." Labour MP for Dunfermline and Dollar Graeme Downie has written to First Minister John Swinney about the threat of job losses at Greenfold. Scottish Liberal Democrat economy spokesperson Jamie Greene MSP said: "This will be an extremely difficult time for the workforce at Greenfold Systems, and my thoughts are with them today. Hundreds of Scots Jobs 'At Risk' as H&M Plans Call Centre Closure "The SNP's failure to support bus building and buying in Scotland is inflicting a chain reaction of misery for workers and local communities across the country. "If the SNP government are serious about delivering for our economy, they should be sitting down with the firm to thrash out a solution and finally get behind Scottish manufacturing." Secretary for Business and Employment Richard Lochhead said: "I am very disappointed to learn that Greenfold Systems Ltd has entered into consultation with a view to making redundancies at its Dunfermline site. "This will be a difficult time for the employees at risk of losing their jobs, their families and for the local area.

Alexander Dennis announced that around 400 jobs are currently at risk after announcing shock plans to move operations to England. The company, which has factories in Falkirk and Larbert, Stirlingshire, said it was considering switching manufacturing to a site in Scarborough, Yorkshire. The plans would see work at the Falkirk site discontinued while the Larbert hub would be closed after current contracts are completed. The company said it was facing strong competition from Chinese electric bus manufacturers whose share of the market had risen from 10% to 35%. ADL director Paul Davies told a committee of MPs on Thursday that the closure of its Scottish sites was "not a done deal", but that orders for up to 100 buses and changes to regulation would be needed before the end of the year.

90 jobs at risk at Fife firm that supplies parts to Alexander Dennis
The company said it was the result of plans announced by bus manufacturer ADL – one of Greenfold's major customers – to close its Scottish sites in order to consolidate its manufacturing business at a single site in Yorkshire. Greenfold specialises in metal fabrication, cable and wiring, kitting and assembly, with reportedly about half of its staff working on constructing the sides, interdecks and roofs of buses for ADL. Speaking to The Courier, Greenfold Systems managing director Craig Waterson described ADL as a 'sizeable customer', and said it was a 'difficult situation' for the company. 'What happens with ADL remains to be seen. We would, of course, like a clearer answer but we're not going to get one anytime soon,' he said.

Alexander Dennis bus firm pulls out of Scotland with manufacturing jobs at risk
Workers at Greenfold Systems Ltd in Dunfermline were informed of potential redundancies as around half the workforce are employed to construct parts for the firm's buses. Up to 90 jobs are at risk at a Scots manufacturing firm after bus company Alexander Dennis revealed plans to pull out of Scotland. Workers at Greenfold Systems Ltd in Dunfermline were informed of potential redundancies as around half the workforce are employed to construct parts for the firm's buses. The building - one of three - is dedicated to the work on the buses, with other sites in Lochgelly and Chatham, England. Graeme Downie, Labour MP for Dunfermline and Dollar, said he has written to First Minister John Swinney about the threat of job losses. He told STV News: 'The management and staff at Greenfold Systems are doing their best in an incredibly difficult situation but the fact these 90 jobs in Dunfermline are at risk just shows the ripple effects of the SNP's economic incompetence and their failure to support Alexander Dennis and bus building in Scotland.' Plans under consultation at Alexander Dennis would close their Falkirk plant and cease production at the nearby Larbert factory, with 400 jobs at risk. Bosses at the bus firm this week said the closure of sites at Scotland is 'not a done deal'. The company told MSPs that orders for up to 100 buses and changes to regulation are needed before the end of the year. The jobs would instead be consolidated at a single site in Scarborough. In evidence to a Holyrood committee, president and managing director Paul Davies said: 'It's absolutely not a done deal, it is a consultation process." Davies told the committee the firm would need to see consistent orders to help stabilise the future of the business in Scotland. He said this would be around 70 to 100 buses by the end of the year and 300 to 400 for next year. Calls have been made for a furlough scheme to be put in place, with the Government being urged to step in and pay workers until building can begin. Deputy First Minister Kate Forbes pledged earlier this month to 'leave no stone unturned' to secure a future for the workers at risk. Scottish Liberal Democrat economy spokesperson Jamie Greene MSP said: 'This will be an extremely difficult time for the workforce at Greenfold Systems, and my thoughts are with them today. 'The SNP's failure to support bus building and buying in Scotland is inflicting a chain reaction of misery for workers and local communities across the country.
