The Labour Court recommended that William Hill Ltd and the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union resolve their dispute over proposed changes to employment terms using proposals developed by the Labour Relations Commission and a Court-appointed facilitator. The recommendation was signed on 11 March 2011. The union sought stronger assurances on work patterns and an additional year of compensation for workers losing pay after promotion. William Hill Ltd said it was operating at a loss and needed savings to protect jobs. The Court considered the facilitator’s proposals adequate on work-pattern protections and fair and balanced on compensation, and recommended that both sides take steps without delay to resolve the dispute in line with the proposals.
