The Labour Court recommended revised basic rates for new employees at Liebherr Container Cranes Limited: 75% for Group 2, 83% for Group 3 and 90% for Group 4. The recommendation was dated 2 August 1994 and made the rates subject to local negotiations on group composition. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union argued the proposed rates were below existing wages and sought a flat differential. The company said lower labour costs were needed to remain competitive and protect jobs. The Court found reasonable grounds for a new wage structure.
