The Labour Court found a complaint by the Technical, Engineering And Electrical Union well founded against Ascal Electrical Ltd, signing its decision on 22 March 2007. It interpreted the agreement to require Ascal to enrol apprentices over 20 in an approved pension scheme and found the company's premises at Crumlin Business Centre was its shop for calculating travelling time. The union alleged breaches of the Registered Employment Agreement for the Electrical Contracting Industry. The company argued apprentices were not employees for the pension clause and that its office was not a shop because work was carried out on site. The Court made no order at that stage, allowing the parties a month to negotiate; either party could then apply for an order.
