Labour Court to meet both sides in electricians dispute
It had been hoped that the court would be able to issue a ruling binding on both sides to the dispute but that now seems unlikely and if agreement between the parties is not reached the strike could continue for some time.
The biggest electrical employer, the Electrical Contractors Association and the Technical Electrical and Engineering Union had both indicated to the Labour Relations Commission they would be willing to enter binding arbitration if it forwarded the process onto the Labour Court.
