In 2000, the Labour Court recommended that Manufacturing, Science, Finance's claim for recognition and negotiating rights at Wellman International Limited proceed under procedures established following a report on the right to bargain. The recommendation was dated 31 August 2000. The union sought representation rights for clerical, administrative, supervisory and managerial staff at the company's Mullagh plant. It said changes to terms, work and contracts made structured negotiations necessary. The company argued that additional collective representation could affect its flexibility and strategy.
