In 2000, the Labour Court recommended that Peerless Rugs operate its workplace proposals for 13 weeks to assess their effect on employee earnings, then review the situation. The recommendation was signed on 4 April 2000. The proposals followed a review of productivity and work practices, including changes to the bonus scheme and wage structure. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union had suggested a trial with a compensatory lead-in payment. The Court noted management's confidence that the proposals would increase employees' earnings.
