The Labour Court rejected the Amalgamated Transport And General Workers' Union's appeal and upheld the Rights Commissioner's recommendation concerning a Grove Turkeys worker's suspension and transfer. The decision was signed on 30 November 1998. The worker, a shop steward, was suspended without pay for two weeks and transferred after refusing a supervisor's instruction. The union sought compensation for the loss of pay caused by the transfer and his return to the killing line. The Court also recommended that concerns about his role as a shop steward be handled under the relevant code of practice for employee representatives.
