EWTD High Court Case Settlement
|
|
|
|
On Friday 22nd January 2010 the IMO secured a favourable settlement of the EWTD High Court case including a collective agreement ensuring the HSE cannot make unilateral changes to NCHD contracts and reinforcing the entitlement of the IMO to negotiate on behalf of NCHDs.
The Collective Agreement deals with issues relating to EWTD implementation which will allow for the EWTD to be implemented in a more flexible, appropriate and uniform manner while ensuring protection of NCHD training, income and health and safety. These include an agreement that NCHDs may be rostered to work up to a maximum of 24 consecutive hours subject to provision of equivalent compensatory rest and on no more than a one in five basis. The Agreement also provides for new arrangements for protected training time for NCHDs which will not count as working time for the purposes of the EWTD but which shall be treated the same as working hours for payment purposes.
