Labour Court rejects redundancy request for Concrete Products worker

The Labour Court did not recommend conceding the Irish Transport And General Workers' Union’s claim for redundancy or restoration to a foreman role for a worker at Concrete Products Of Ireland Limited. Its recommendation was signed on 15 May 1989. The tile-plant foreman had 28 years’ service. After the plant closed during a reorganisation, he accepted redeployment as a general operative with compensation for lost income under an agreed formula. The Court found no grounds to recommend restoring him to a foreman position, where there was no vacancy, or granting redundancy while work remained available.
