The Labour Court recommended that Rangeland Foods Limited and the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union resume urgent talks on production staffing and a new maintenance shift pattern. It said any claim for lost regular Saturday overtime arising from the shift changes should be addressed in those discussions. The recommendation was signed on 27 June 2008. The union sought restoration of the four-shift pattern and compensation for lost overtime. The company cited a loss of business and said it needed to control costs.
