Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Cost of Living, Minimum Wage Increases and Report of Low Pay Commission: Discussion

Mr. Gerry Light:

It is a very direct approach. It would not be the standard industrial relations approach which goes through layers of procedures. The companies have direct access to the Labour Court and they go in and lay out all the relevant details and the court will deal with that in a very experienced and professional way. My understanding is, in the very few cases that travel to the court, that recommendations would be adhered to. Again, I am not entirely positive on that.
