Labour Court recommends basic clerical grade 3 pay for Independent Newspapers worker’s sick pay

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court recommended that Independent Newspapers Limited and the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union accept that an unnamed redeployed worker’s sick pay be based on basic pay for clerical grade 3, not the red-circled salary. The recommendation was dated 22 September 2003. The union said a 2000 redeployment agreement preserved the worker’s other terms and conditions, including sick pay based on the protected salary. The company said sick pay in the former production role was based on basic pay. The Court interpreted the agreement as applying the sick-pay terms of the redeployed post.
