The Labour Court rejected the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union’s claim for a £13.41 weekly pay increase and regrading for a Hallmark Cards Limited pick-up operative. The recommendation was signed on 21 November 1991. The union said a new machine had increased productivity by about 20% and added duties including quality control and repairs. Hallmark Cards Limited argued the output recovery came mainly from its investment in equipment and that changes to the operative’s duties were minor.
