The Labour Court recommended that an unnamed chef at Sligo General Hospital be appointed permanently as a Chef Grade I, with appropriate retrospective payments from November 2001. The recommendation was signed on 28 May 2009. The Court found he lost advancement opportunities because HSE (West) had not made his Grade II position permanent in 1999. He was consequently ineligible to apply for a Chef Grade I post in 2001, and the Court said he would have succeeded if allowed to compete. The Court rejected his claims about arrears of pay, stopped pay and increments, finding he had not been treated differently from others in similar circumstances.
