Facts of the Case

Background

The appellant, a Rural District Council, appealed against an arbitral award that ordered it to pay allowances and benefits to health workers represented by the respondent trade union. The arbitrator had previously determined that the health staff were council employees but dismissed the salary claim due to absence of grading, then later quantified allowances in a separate award.
