On 11 August 2008, the Labour Court will hold Inquiries into the proposal by the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment to abolish the four existing Joint Labour Committees (JLCs) in the clothing sector and replace them with a single JLC to operate in relation to workers employed in the clothing sector and their employers.

The four existing JLCs are the Tailoring JLC, Shirtmaking JLC, Women’s Clothing & Millinery JLC and Handkerchief and Household Piece Goods JLC. Written representations may be submitted to the court in advance of the date of the Inquiries.

In addition, the Employment Regulation Order (Hairdressing Joint Labour Committee), 2008 is effective from 11 July 2008 and fixes the statutory minimum rates of pay and statutory conditions of employment of workers in the Hairdressing sector. All employers of the workers affected by the changes are required by law to post a copy of the Notice.
