The Labour Court recommended that arrangements used during a December 2015 shutdown be applied to later Basf Ireland Ltd shutdowns in October and December 2016. The recommendation was signed on 26 June 2017. The dispute concerned standby allowances for craft workers during plant closures. Basf Ireland Ltd and the Technical, Engineering And Electrical Union interpreted their September 2016 agreement differently, and the Court recommended agreeing future arrangements before any further shutdown.
