The Labour Court recommended that Carlow County Council, the Irish Municipal, Public and Civil Trade Union and the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union agree terms for a flexi-time scheme within 12 weeks. The recommendation, signed on 14 November 2014, proposed introducing the scheme on 1 February 2015. The scheme would let staff bank hours and take time off later. The unions argued flexible hours were already being worked and leave could be approved in advance. Management said staff reductions made the scheme unworkable and could affect public services. The Court recommended referring any unresolved terms back to it for a definitive recommendation.
