Labour Court recommends conciliation over Element Six dispute procedure

The Labour Court recommended that Element Six and the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union return to conciliation over the company's dispute-resolution procedure. It said the collective issues were unsuitable for this referral route and urged a full effort to resolve them. The union said Element Six had failed to implement a procedure signed by workers and refused to engage with the Labour Relations Commission. The company said it complied with employment law and internal procedures. The recommendation was signed on 20 April 2015.
