The Labour Court recommended accepting South Eastern Health Board’s plan to move laundry services from St. Lukes and Kilcreane hospitals in Kilkenny to Ardkeen in Waterford. The recommendation was signed on 11 January 1993. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union opposed the transfer, warning that temporary workers could be displaced and proposing a Kilkenny location. The Court noted guarantees on permanent employment and said potential losses for current temporary staff should remain under review.
