In 1992, the Labour Court recommended acceptance of Palmville Limited's P.E.S.P. 3% plus 3% cap offer, which it considered the maximum the company could afford. Its recommendation was signed on 18 August 1992. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union sought a £35 weekly increase and alleged the proposed workforce reduction was retaliation for serving strike notice. The company cited its trading position and proposed rotating lay-off. The Court also recommended workers consider rotating lay-off for a specified period.
