The Labour Court recommended that South Eastern Health Board (Waterford Regional Hospital) and Amalgamated Transport And General Workers' Union carry out a joint review of porter cover in the hospital's Accident and Emergency Unit. The recommendation, signed on 11 February 1998, followed the union's claim for seven-day cover and a restriction on redeploying the additional porter elsewhere in the hospital. The Board said no further resources were available and the extra hours were best used Monday to Friday. The Court said proposals accepted by both sides had not been fully implemented and recommended that they carry out the review and agree how to deal with its findings.
