Labour court dismissed union's claim that employer breached collective agreement by refusing to pay overtime.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Labour Court dismissed the union's appeal against a decision finding no breach of the collective agreement. The union argued that the employer failed to pay overtime for work performed outside normal hours, while the employer contended that the work fell within the agreed scope. The court ruled that the specific tasks performed did not constitute overtime under the relevant terms of the agreement.
