The Labour Court deferred a bus driver’s claim for compensation after Bus Eireann changed his rest day and ended seven-day working. The recommendation was dated 12 April 1994. The National Bus and Rail Union said his weekly gross pay fell from £320 to £273. The Court found that Bus Eireann’s unilateral change to the driver’s rest day caused considerable loss. It deferred consideration of the claim until national discussions were finalised, saying a settlement could affect those talks or be used as a precedent.
