RR Donnelley's UK print site in Flaxby Moor has been dealt a further blow with news that the press devastated by fire last year is to be moved to Poland.

According to local press reports, a letter has been sent to employees revealing that the press will be refurbished and relocated to Poland during the course of this year.

It is understood that staff at the company fear further job cuts on top of the 35 reported earlier this month. The two-tower press, a Goss Universal 70, was damaged in a fire in November last year.

The Yorkshire-based division's best known client is the Yellow Pages and the site employs 390 staff.

One anonymous member of staff told the local press that the "vast majority of the workforce" felt "badly let down by the company".

"The presses at Flaxby are some of the best in the industry but it's plain to everyone that this just comes down to cost," added the worker.
