The Labour Court recommended that the Amalgamated Transport And General Workers' Union accept Waterford Crystal's 52-week formula for compensating workers who lost earnings after weekly hours were reduced. The recommendation was dated 20 May 1996. The union, representing 105 members, had sought compensation based on 156 weeks. Waterford Crystal said the 52-week formula was fair given the costs of its seven-day shift cycle and its efforts to restore competitiveness.
