The Labour Court increased recommended compensation for Lufthansa Technik Airmotive Ireland staff hired before 1992 from €400 to €500, and raised paid time from 18 to 20 hours, as the company ended cash wage payments. The recommendation was signed on 10 March 2010. The Lufthansa Technik Airmotive (IRL) (Employee) Works Council argued the original compensation did not account for the ongoing inconvenience of switching from cash wages delivered at the factory. The company cited difficult trading conditions and safety concerns linked to cash pay. The Court adjusted the terms of a provisional agreement endorsed by both sides.
