FACTORY HATS
RULED AS MILLINERY JUDGMENT OF COURT “Any work customarily performed by hand by milliners is none the less milliners’ work when it is performed with the aid of machines,” states Mr. Justice Frazer in a memorandum to the Northern Dressmakers’ and Milliners’ Award. The judge states that the addition of the New Zealand Millinery Factory was contested on the ground that the making of hats or hat-bodies by machines was not milliners' work. The question of a definition of milliners’ work had been referred by the parties to the Conciliation Commissioner for decision, and the decision given was not wholly acceptable to either side. “The solution of any difficulties arising from the application of the conditions of a shop milliners’ award to factory milliners appears to lie in the provision of a separate award, or section of an award, for factory milliners. As other millinery factories are at present bound by the existing award, the court has decided to add the New Zealand Millinery Factory as a party.”
