The Labour Court recommended changes to a proposed staff appraisal and development programme at Anthony Ryan’s Galway after a dispute with Mandate. Its recommendation was signed on 18 March 2016. Anthony Ryan’s Galway said the programme would address online and physical competition, falling sales and margin pressures. Mandate said its potential benefits were unclear and employees feared it would target underperformance. The Court recommended training for staff and appraisers before the programme began, simpler criteria tied to measurable performance, a formal way for employees to give feedback, and a trial in a small number of departments followed by a review.
