The Labour Court disallowed the union’s appeal over a worker’s Grade 8 promotion at St Patrick’s Centre (Kilkenny) Ltd, finding the appointment unauthorised and irregular. The decision was dated 22 September 2015. The union said the appointment had board approval and was covered by Circular 17/2013. The employer said the regrading did not follow proper procedures and the overpayment should be repaid. The Court declined to restore the worker to Grade 8 and considered recovery of the salary difference through her expected retirement date reasonable.
