The Labour Court recommended that Johnson Brothers' stockroom transfer from Ballymount to Limerick proceed, and that the company reaffirm its commitment to keeping affected staff on their current terms and conditions. The recommendation was signed on 8 August 2011. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union opposed the move, citing assurances that Ballymount staff would face no changes to their employment terms. The company said the relocation was needed for efficiency and promised no further job losses, with affected staff to be redeployed appropriately. The Court said the transfer should proceed for business reasons and recommended immediate discussions on modern warehousing methods to support sufficient work and continued employment at the depot.
