The Labour Court confirmed that canteen staff represented by the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union (SIPTU) were entitled to the same pay as their comparator, with arrears from 12 February 1993. The determination was signed on 10 November 1995. The Court rejected the union's household appeal because the comparator had significant extra duties, and upheld Peamount Hospital's appeals for laundry and kitchen staff, citing the comparator's greater driving duties, skill and responsibility.
