Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Labour Court recommended that Ireland West Airport Knock and the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union finalise banded-hours arrangements reflecting workers’ established hours, particularly in winter. It also recommended broadening the 2004 agreement to cover pay rates for peak-period recruits, and accepting the company’s proposal to base progression through pay scales on accumulated service. The recommendation is dated 15 March 2016. The union sought agreed entry rates and contracts reflecting actual hours. The airport said new recruits moved onto agreed scales after a year and that it was prepared to offer banded hours.
