The Labour Court recommended that seven full-time permanent staff at Newbridge College receive the £4 minimum weekly increases under the Programme for National Recovery. The recommendation was signed on 13 February 1990. The dispute concerned staff working a 30-hour week. The College had offered to calculate the minimum increase pro rata against a 40-hour week, while the Services, Industrial, Professional, Technical Union argued that the workers were full-time adults. The Court said the parties’ earlier working arrangements supported the minimum increase.
