SIPTU and Unite have been engaged in talks at the Labour Court for four days
Two unions representing ambulance workers are to stand down a 72 hour strike by members which was due to take place next week.
The work-to-rule will end from noon today.
SIPTU and Unite have been engaged in talks at the Labour Court for four days.
The talks concern what SIPTU calls is the HSE’s failure to implement the recommendations of an independent report on updating ambulance workers’ pay scales to reflect changes in their responsibilities and workloads over the last 20 years.
“While this engagement was difficult and challenging at times, we believe that significant progress has been made,” SIPTU Ambulance Sector Organiser John McCamley said.
He added: “We remain in process, but the Labour Court has requested more time to deliberate on some of the issues in dispute. We are hopeful that this process will bring this long-standing dispute to a resolution.”
