A firm foundation: Castle Cement's new deal
Article Abstract:
UK firm Castle Cement's revised deal with its trade unions revamps company policy on teamworking, job grade structure, and annual salaries and hours. The deal also unifies agreements on layoffs and pay across various sites, and introduces compensatory hours. Castle hopes increased employee flexibility and the annualized hours arrangement will control soaring costs associated with job demarcation and overtime.
