Labour Court rejects union claim for improved redundancy terms at Spollen Concrete

The Labour Court did not recommend conceding the Irish Transport and General Workers' Union's claim that a driver facing redundancy at Spollen Concrete Limited should keep his job or receive a settlement reflecting the compulsory nature of the redundancy. It recommended that the worker accept the redundancy terms negotiated for other employees in 1987. Those terms included £550 for each year of service and a minimum £1,000 payment for notice. The recommendation was signed on 28 September 1987.
