In 2004, the Labour Court recommended that Corporate Cleaning Services Limited make an €800 payment to settle a dispute over including shift payments in overtime calculations. The recommendation was dated 9 December. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union said the company had committed to introducing a consolidated rate and that workers had accepted €400 each as an interim payment. The company argued the change would increase costs and affect other staff. The Court cited expectations built up around the company’s intention to consolidate shift premium payments with basic pay for overtime.
