The Labour Court recommended two increases in basic pay for workers at Crown Paints Ireland Limited: 2% from 1 January 2015 and a further 2% from 1 January 2016. The recommendation was signed on 25 May 2015. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union had sought 3% increases, arguing workers had received no increases since 2008 and had faced pay reductions. The company cited continuing competitive pressures and said it could not sustain the additional costs. The Court said an increase was warranted after considering both sides’ positions.
