Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court disallowed a worker’s appeal and upheld a Rights Commissioner’s recommendation in a pay progression dispute with Ballygowan Ltd. The decision was dated 14 December 2004. The union said the worker had not been told that his pay would remain lower while he completed the ETS training programme. The Court found he lacked the required skills when recruited, completed the training in a shorter period than others and received the full rate after 12 months. It found the proposed timetable fair and reasonable.
