Widows of former HSE workers back at WRC in 'disturbing and chilling' row over pensions

In May, the WRC recommended 'management meet with all relevant decision-makers to develop a mechanism to ensure this matter is finalised'. Picture: Colin Keegan/ Collins 

Widows whose deceased husbands worked for the HSE are receiving a lower pension than expected because a pay increase granted in 2007 has not been honoured for one group of workers.

This “disturbing and chilling" row was before the Workplace Relations Commission in May and returns on Friday because recommendations have not been acted on.
