The Labour Court recommended that Stella Maris Nursing Home recognise the Collective Group of Workers, represented by the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union, for collective bargaining. It also recommended that the parties meet at an early date to agree a bargaining framework. The recommendation was dated 14 October 2015. The dispute concerned union recognition. The union said it had significant membership and sought bargaining to negotiate improvements to members’ terms and conditions. Management opposed the claim, saying workers were satisfied with their terms and employment issues should be handled individually.
