If workers at the former Daewoo site in Worthing get their jobs back then the TWR company which has taken it over must be congratulated.

During the last few years, worker numbers at the technical centre in Worthing dropped from 750 to 146 up until the time the company was sold to TWR.

Phil Harding, TWR's engineering director, has said the company has been inundated with people who still live in the Worthing area who want to come back to work.

There must be a large pool of untapped talent lying dormant in the area which is ready to be reharnessed should TWR attract more customers and need to expand.

A fully-employed labour market can only prove beneficial to both the people and economy of Worthing and we should all support our local businesses if we want to benefit from a booming economy.
