The Labour Court recommended that four foremen and supervisors accept Irish Ale Breweries (Guinness Ireland Group)’s offer on a stay-back allowance, rejecting the Services Industrial Professional Technical Union’s claim for the full £60 daily allowance. The recommendation was dated 2 March 1999. The Court said it saw no basis to recommend the union’s claim. The company had applied a £10 daily increase to the foremen and supervisors, while the union sought the full £60 per day offered to forklift drivers.
