Labour Court recommends £3,000 payment for Bailey Gibson employees who remain

The Labour Court recommended a once-off £3,000 payment for each employee remaining in the area at Bailey Gibson Limited, phased when economically possible. The recommendation was signed on 21 June 1994. The dispute with the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union (SIPTU) concerned work practices, redundancies and a financial package. The Court recommended that the company implement changes already agreed by the union and that both sides review them after a three-month trial. It noted that three redundancies were being sought and that the parties had agreed to pool redundancy payments.
