Historic decision · Decision date:

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court was not in a position to recommend concession of Services Industrial Professional Technical Union’s claim to restore pay parity at Carnaud Metal Box Limited. The recommendation was dated 23 January 2002. The Court considered the higher overtime premium for maintenance staff part of a productivity deal specific to that group; it noted that their basic rate had not changed. The union had argued that the arrangement widened the pay gap with plant operatives.
