La Senza workers stage Liffey Valley sit-in

Workers at lingerie firm La Senza are staging a sit-in at the company's store in Liffey Valley in Dublin, after the firm went into administration yesterday. 

The lingerie company operates 15 shops in Ireland and employs more than 100 people here. 

Workers who now face redundancy say they fear they will not be paid for overtime in December and are concerned about their redundancy entitlements.

One former La Senza employee told Cork's RedFM that staff from branches all over the country were joining the sit-in at Liffey Valley.

"I'll be heading up to Dublin myself. We might as well centralise it - we feel we'll get more attention that way," she said.
