Labour Court disallows appeal over six nurse manager posts

By Rory Hanlon

Historic decision · Decision date:

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court disallowed a worker’s appeal over the filling of six clinical nurse manager posts at Western Health Board. The decision was signed on 3 October 2002. The worker said he did not receive the competition advertisement in time to apply and argued that seniority should determine appointments. The Court accepted advice that interested staff were expected to apply, and found the Board had not acted wrongly by using a confined competition, with seniority subject to suitability for half of the posts.
