Labour Court recommends enhanced redundancy terms for two workers at Frank McDonagh & Company Limited

The Labour Court recommended that two redundant sales assistants receive three weeks’ wages per year of service in addition to statutory redundancy. Its recommendation was signed on 31 May 1988. The Irish Distributive And Administrative Trade Union sought better terms, citing the workers’ long service and assurances that their department would not close. Frank McDonagh & Company Limited had paid statutory redundancy and said it could not afford additional payments.
