The Labour Court recommended increasing Lake Communications Ltd’s redundancy payment cap from one year’s salary to the equivalent of 104 weeks’ pay. The recommendation was signed on 10 June 2011. A group of workers argued that the cap disadvantaged longer-serving staff and compounded earlier reductions in pay and conditions. Lake Communications Ltd said the cap was fair given its financial position and noted that one-year caps had applied in earlier redundancy rounds.
