SIPTU members at RehabGroup protest over its failure to implement Labour Court rulings
SIPTU members held a protest at the headquarters of the RehabGroup in Sandymount, Dublin on Monday (13th February) to highlight the failure of the company to honour two outstanding Labour Court recommendations.
SIPTU Sector Organiser, Louise O’Reilly, said that the Labour Court has determined that staff at the company are owed money dating back several years.
“The company management has indicated that it will give consideration to the Labour Court recommendations but has not made any effort to implement them leaving our members with no option but to protest.
“SIPTU members organised this protest at lunch-time on Monday to ensure that there was no impact on the people who depend on the services of Rehab. There is a clear imbalance between the top management of Rehab that enjoy lavish earnings, as has been widely reported over recent months, and those delivering front line services who are struggling to make ends meet.
“Following the short protest SIPTU members presented a letter to the company asking it to honour the Labour Court recommendations,” Louise O’Reilly said.
