The Labour Court recommended that Loxam, Swan Plant Hire and SIPTU agree a comprehensive arrangement covering employment terms, including pay, and dispute resolution. It also recommended that they agree 2024 pay arrangements before the end of that year. The Court recommended a €500 Christmas 2025 bonus as a goodwill gesture and that the parties agree a future bonus scheme early in 2025. The recommendation was signed on 6 August 2024. The dispute arose after SIPTU said collective bargaining was not taking place despite its recognition for bargaining; the employer said it had raised pay by 2% in April 2024 and a further 1% increase would follow.
