Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court dismissed a union appeal seeking the restoration of two annual leave days for John Graham, leaving the Rights Commissioner’s finding that Atlas Aluminium Limited breached consultation rules in place. The determination was dated 25 September 2006. The union said Atlas imposed leave days on 29 April and 3 June 2005 without agreement or the required consultation. It sought restoration of the leave but did not challenge the finding of a breach. The company said the days were needed for production and commercial reasons and accepted the Rights Commissioner’s decision. The Court considered the Rights Commissioner’s decision on compensation reasonable and dismissed the appeal.
