Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court recommended no increase to Tambrands Ireland Limited stock handlers' forklift allowance, which had been incorporated into basic pay. It also said actions cited by the employer were contrary to the flexibility agreement and recommended that they end immediately. The recommendation was signed on 10 August 1992. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union had sought a £10 weekly increase and challenged how the company applied its flexibility and interchangeability agreement. The Court recommended that the parties meet to agree how future workplace changes should be handled.
