Labour Court upholds Wyeth Nutritionals recommendation on worker’s grading grievance

The Labour Court disallowed a worker’s appeal and affirmed a Rights Commissioner’s recommendation that a grievance about delayed grading discussions be treated as resolved. The decision was dated 23 June 2004. The worker argued that talks promised under a 1993 agreement had not taken place within the agreed period. Wyeth Nutritionals said the agreement left open future discussions and that a new grading structure had been agreed and implemented in February 2004. The Court found the Rights Commissioner’s conclusions reasonable and appropriate in light of the facts.
