The Labour Court recommended that Co. Donegal Vocational Education Committee and Services Industrial Professional Technical Union agree compensation for eight school caretakers who lost overtime earnings. The recommendation was signed on 22 October 2010. The union said the overtime was regular and rostered, while the VEC said it was neither and cited a 3% payroll reduction instruction. The Court recommended identifying the regular, rostered hours withdrawn from each claimant and arranging compensation equal to 1.5 times each person's annual loss.
