29 Mr. Killeen asked the Minister for Enterprise and Employment the action, if any, he has taken to improve pay and working conditions in tourism-related employment; and the proposals, if any, he has in this regard. [18758/96]
As in any sector, pay and working conditions in tourism-related employment are matters for negotiation and agreement between employees and employers and or their representatives. Where disputes arise the services of the Labour Relations Commission and the Labour Court are available to the parties.
Under the Industrial Relations Acts, 1946-90, trade unions or other organisations claiming to represent a category of workers may make application to the Labour Court for the establishment of a joint labour committee known as a JLC.
