THE workforce of around 170 at the Rolls-Royce factory in Dalgety Bay are the latest in West Fife to face uncertainties over redundancies.

The company has announced it will implement job cuts of 1500 to 2000 out of a global workforce of 39,000.

A spokesman for the company said it was "too early to be specific about the precise implications for the number and location of job reductions".

However, the spokesman added, "These reductions account for around four per cent of the total workforce and will have an effect globally.

"As the precise scale and location of the reductions become clear, Roll-Royce will enter into detailed consultations in the relevant.

"It is possible that in some areas there will be little or no impact."
