MULTIPLICITY OF AWARDS.
CAUSE OP SERIOUS TROUBLE. (By Telegraph.-Press Association.) Christchurch, July 7. The multiplicity of awards applying to one industry or business has frequently been the cause of serious trouble and inconvenience to employers, and a striking instance was mentioned to-day at the Conciliation Council by Mr. Hopkins, manager of the Belfast Freezing Works. He said that no fewer than seventeen awards applied to different workers employed there, and almost endless trouble was caused in seeing that 110 breaches occurred. A clerk was kept for the solo purpose of seeing that the different awards were observed, Mr. Hopkins expressed the opinion that tho time had arrived when some comprehensive working basis covering tho whole of the employees in tho industry should be adopted.
