The Labour Court recommended that the Irish Transport And General Workers' Union accept a 22.5% shift premium for two workers at Cow And Gate Limited. The recommendation was signed on 18 January 1990. The union had sought a 25% premium for a two-shift, five-day week. Cow and Gate had offered a lower rate, and the parties used 22.5% temporarily while the dispute went through the process. The Court considered that rate reasonable in the circumstances.
