Labour Court rejects union upgrade claim at National College Of Art And Design (N.C.A.D.)

The Labour Court found no grounds to concede the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union's claim to upgrade a technical assistant post to assistant lecturer at the National College Of Art And Design (N.C.A.D.). The recommendation was signed on 5 September 1990. The union argued the worker taught print processes and performed assistant lecturer duties. The College said the role fitted the upper technical assistant grade and differed from a formal lecturing post. The Court considered the parties' oral and written submissions before declining the claim.
