The Labour Court recommended a 4.25% pay increase for Shannon Foynes Port Company’s 30 Mixed Grade Employees, represented by the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union (SIPTU), along with a €500 tax-free voucher for eligible workers. The recommendation was dated 18 September 2023. The dispute remained unresolved after a Workplace Relations Commission conciliation conference. The Court recommended a one-year agreement running from 1 January to 31 December 2023, with the increase effective from 1 January. Workers who had not already received a voucher in the 2023 wage round were to receive one as soon as practicable after the agreement was concluded. Any claim for service days would be considered in talks on a successor agreement.
