Historic decision · Decision date:

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court found the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union had a well-founded claim for compensation after Cork County Council reduced regular, rostered overtime. It recommended calculating the loss without hours above the statutory maximum, then compensating it at twice its annual value. The council said it could not restore the lost hours and warned that compensation could have wider cost implications. The recommendation was signed on 12 April 2007.
