SIPTU representatives will attend a Labour Court hearing on Wednesday (16th January) into the dispute at Bus Eireann following lengthy discussions at the Labour Relations Commission (LRC) on Friday (11th January). The company has agreed to defer introducing cuts in employees' terms and conditions until the Labour Court hearing is taking place. SIPTU members in Bus Éireann voted last Wednesday (9thJanuary) to commence strike action if management attempts to unilaterally impose the reductions in workers terms and conditions following a ballot in which 91% voted in favour.
