Union fails to show for dispute hearing
The management of the union had been asked to answer a number of claims made on behalf of 24 staff at its head offices in Dublin, represented by SIPTU and the National Union of Journalists (NUJ).
They allege that elected officers have failed to comply with agreed procedures for dealing with staff grievances, including non-consultation on new forms for expenses. But because of legal advice that they would be in breach of a High Court order, the elected officers of ASTI did not attend yesterday’s hearing.
