The Labour Court recommended that St Luke’s Hospital urgently reopen redeployment discussions with a worker after its Cytology Laboratory closed. The recommendation was signed on 30 September 2009. The worker, a medical scientist in the laboratory since 2003, wanted work suited to her specialist technical experience. The hospital said it had offered redeployment on her existing terms and she had declined the available options. The Court recommended exploring technical or testing work that respected her experience and wishes, and said the ICER plan should apply if she was eligible and wished to use it.
