The Labour Court recommended that Mandate and the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union accept Brown Thomas’s offer on changes to its staff accounts system. The recommendation was dated 19 April 1994. The unions had sought £600 per worker after the company ended an interest-free credit scheme. Brown Thomas proposed extending its discount system to its A Wear and Switzers stores for a year, followed by a review. The Court recommended accepting the offer. If the review showed employees had suffered a financial loss, the company agreed to pay compensation at a level the parties would agree.
