The Labour Court recommended one year of pay protection and payment equal to 52 weeks’ lost earnings for workers downgraded at Up-Right Ireland Limited. The recommendation was signed on 11 January 1993. The dispute concerned three chargehands, two furnace minders and a sprayer whose pay fell after a reorganisation. The Technical Engineering And Electrical Union sought greater compensation, while the company said its offer was already generous and it could not afford more.
