The Labour Court recommended that the Irish Transport And General Workers Union accept Dublin Cemeteries Committee's Saturday-working proposals, with £500 compensation per person for lost earnings. The recommendation was signed on 19 May 1989. The committee cited financial losses and said the 1961 agreement required workers to attend on Saturdays as needed. The union said all-day Saturday overtime had been worked for nearly 28 years and had become part of workers' earnings.
