The Labour Court recommended a two-stage 2% pay increase for workers at Boxmore Plastics Ltd, alongside talks on productivity and efficiency. The recommendation was signed on 31 August 2016. The Services Industrial Professional Technical Union said workers had received no increase since 2007 and had adapted to workplace changes. Boxmore Plastics Ltd said any rise needed to be self-financing through productivity improvements. The Court recommended a 1% increase from 1 March 2016 and a further 1% from 1 September 2016, with the pay agreement due to expire on 28 February 2017. It recommended that the union begin immediate talks with the company, to be completed within 12 weeks; unresolved issues could return to the Court for a definitive recommendation.
