Union seeks clarification after bus drivers' wages were docked for not working during storm warnings.

The National Bus and Rail Workers Union is seeking clarification from Bus Éireann after several Cork bus drivers had their wages docked for not reporting to work during a red weather warning ahead of Storm Bert. Despite Met Éireann's advice not to travel, Bus Éireann did not cancel all services and issued formal warnings to drivers who did not show up, leading to wage deductions. The union aims to understand the company's decision-making process and restore the drivers' wages.
