The Labour Court rejected a Limerick City Council worker’s claim for appointment as a Senior Executive Engineer, while upholding a recommendation that future applications for Resident Engineer or Senior Executive Engineer posts receive favourable consideration. The decision was dated 14 April 2014. The union argued that the worker should be appointed Senior Executive Engineer to protect his income. The council said his temporary secondment as a Resident Engineer had ended and he had returned to his substantive Executive Engineer role. The Court found he had never been a Senior Executive Engineer and accepted the council’s right to recall him from secondment when his services were needed.
