Labour Court recommends against pay parity claim at Iveagh Trust for now

In 1993, the Labour Court recommended that a union pay-parity claim for 16 Iveagh Trust workers not be pursued at that time, citing its increased cost. It found no grounds for an eating-on-site allowance or disturbance compensation. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union sought parity with Dublin Corporation workers and compensation for disruption during reconstruction. The Trust said it was an independent voluntary housing charity and argued that pay parity alone would cost £30,000, excluding related costs. The recommendation was signed on 26 March 1993.
