Congress manifesto for the coming general election - Politicians must make clear commitments to promote collective bargaining #Respectatwork youtu.be/3e9tFoQZ-UU

📆 The EU’s deadline for putting a directive on collective bargaining into Irish law is TODAY ❌ The outgoing Government has done NOTHING ⏰ TIME’S UP! Workers must no longer be blocked from coming together to bargain for fair pay & working conditions through their trade union.

Government has yet again failed to transpose a directive on workers’ rights into Irish law in full and on time. ictu.ie/news/governmen…

This week in Brussels @RACO_DF & @pdforra jointly hosted an enjoyable social evening with 8 of our Irish MEPs, as well as colleagues from @etuc_ces, @EUROMILeurope and @irishmilrep It was a fantastic opportunity to open important lines of communication with key stakeholders. 1/3

1 in 5 workers are in low paid work. Women in Ireland are significantly more likely to be in low-paid roles, reflecting the undervalued nature of care-work. ❝Government fails low pay workers by missing EU minimum wage law deadline - @aodhanoriordain labour.ie/news/2024/11/1…

If govt parties want the ‘centre to hold’ they need to address the non implementation of this directive. Declining Collective Bargaining and the growth of right wing populism is clearly inter related ⁦@irishcongressirishtimes.com/business/2024/…


Irish Congress (ICTU) Reposted

This is it! EU Countries must have adopted the Directive on Adequate Minimum Wages. But what does it mean? ✔️ Fairer wages ✔️ Stronger collective bargaining ✔️ Improved monitoring & protection A key step in making the European Pillar #SocialRights a reality. #EUMinimumWages


Irish Congress (ICTU) Reposted

Today, EU member states will have to have the Minimum Wage Directive transposed. While some countries have done their homework, most are taking a minimalist approach. That is, I believe, not just against the spirit of the law, but a lost opportunity too. euobserver.com/eu-political/a…

The 🇮🇪 govt must be living in a fantasy land! Nothing has been done or implemented by today’s deadline to meet the transposition date. Nothing has changed! Need take ⁦@EU_Commission⁩ directives seriously 🇮🇪 ⁦@irishcongress⁩ ⁦@etuc_cesrte.ie/news/ireland/2…

Huge credit to the excellent @threecreative who @irishcongress and @NIC_ICTU use for all our conferences and seminars. I would recommend strongly


Irish Congress (ICTU) Reposted

Was delighted to address our @NIC_ICTU BDC this morning. There is a real energy from amongst our NI based affiliates to rise to the challenges of pay, promoting CB and standing up to the far right

Thought provoking and wide ranging address to BADC by @irishcongress General Secretary @owenreidy focussing on the need to build collective bargaining, deliver a progressive Employment Bill and continue to resist the rise of the far right
