Labour Court rejects union claims over work records and stoppage losses

In 1987, the Labour Court did not recommend conceding the National Engineering & Electrical Trade Union's claims against Abbott (Ireland) Limited over signed work records and losses from a stoppage. The recommendation was signed on 16 February. The Court considered the signature requirement reasonable and found it did not add responsibility warranting extra pay. It also said the company had not obstructed an earlier referral and did not recommend payment for stoppage losses.
