IMPACT care workers in the intellectual disability sector are presenting their case at the Labour Court this afternoon.

Last week, the union suspended a strike affecting 1,200 staff at residential homes for the disabled pending the Labour Court negotiation.

IMPACT spokesman, Kevin Callinan, said the acceptance by employers that staff in the sector share a common pay and grading structure with colleagues in residential children’s homes was a breakthrough.
