The Labour Court recommended a £350 lump sum for each of six Tegral Building Products Limited employees displaced after staffing was reduced at two paint lines. It also recommended compensation equal to 26% of any earnings loss assessed after 12 months. In a recommendation dated 21 October 1996, the Court said it did not find the company’s redeployment proposals unreasonable, given its redeployment culture. The union had argued that the changes amounted to the loss of six jobs and that the proposed compensation was inadequate. The Court also recommended a £500 lump sum for each of 18 other employees involved. The dispute was between Tegral Building Products Limited and the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union.
