Sunday Read: Workplace Democracy in Action
"This is how workers can bring democracy to their workplace when they are supported in forming a union."
Welcome to #ourSIPTU@AMhacha@EthelBuckley#DemocracyAtWork
https://t.co/fIF5dp5zOw
This is a very significant win for #ourSIPTU members and has the potential for a much broader impact across the industry and employment rights in general.
Well done to all in @SIPTUWRC for making it happen.

❝ While the Government has finally recognised the problems faced by people forced to retire at 65 and unable to access their pension for another year, this new benefit is deeply disappointing as it does not provide for an adequate income. #Stop67

What does recognition mean?
Today 25,000 Contact Cleaners will see their pay increase by 40c to a minimum of €11.20 per hour.
This isn't gift from government or employers, but negotiated by cleaners, on behalf of for cleaners at a Joint Labour Committee.
Christy will turn 66 in January 2021.
Thanks to the efforts of all #stop67 campaigners and supporters over 21,000 workers like Christy will now get their State pension from New Years Day.
Workers like Christy #STOPPED67
We will continue the #stop67 campaign to ensure that older people and, in particular, women and those who depend entirely on the State for their income in retirement, can benefit from a reformed pension system that secures their quality of life. #STOPPED67
This is a significant victory for the #stop67 campaign and the overwhelming majority of people who voted at #GE2020 to oppose the pension age increases. #STOPPED67
