In 1995, the Labour Court recommended that Sunday Newspapers Limited maintain its current practice for newspaper inserts for six months while it negotiated a new agreement with Services Industrial Professional Technical Union. The recommendation was signed on 14 April 1995. The dispute concerned whether Saturday-night work should first be offered to permanent staff rather than casual workers. The union argued permanent staff should get the work; the company said it had followed the existing agreement and cited the cost of conceding the union’s claim.
