Tough talks
'There's some very hard talking going on, and some very detailed work going on at the moment,' a TGWU spokesman said.
'Negotiations are extremely tough, however every effort is being made to reach a conclusion that will be satisfactory to the TGWU and save the jobs of Gate Gourmet's 1,400 staff at Heathrow,' a Gate Gourmet spokeswoman said.
However, the company said that if it was unable to reach an agreement with the union, 'the most likely outcome will be that the business will be forced into administration.' "
