The Labour Court recommended a 5% increase in basic pay and field allowance for staff at Electrolux Group Ireland Limited, with the €635 bonus incorporated into basic pay. It also recommended negotiations toward a comprehensive collective agreement, with any agreement to take effect alongside the next contract review in August 2004. The recommendation was signed on 5 June 2002. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union (SIPTU) sought an immediate pay rise, saying duties had expanded and rates lagged competitors. The company said its rates were competitive and the claim was barred under the Programme for Prosperity and Fairness.
