Est. June 2014 UNITE’s Irish Archaeological Branch aims to secure a Registered Employment Agreement for archaeologists working in Ireland. New members welcome!
These archaeologists are entitled to being paid the public holiday by law and they’ve suffered horrendous working conditions on this scheme.
The poor treatment of archaeologists, by some employers, has to stop, we’re looking to hear from all archaeologists who’ve had #Enough
Full solidarity with our colleagues on the N2 who drew a line in the sand with their protest today and said #Enough.
Shanarch Archaeology told them they wouldn’t be paid for the public holiday on Monday 6th February, even though that’s illegal! #TIIHeritage#Enough
Massive thank you to @UNITEARCH branch who have now brought my fundraiser for @Womens_Aid to over €1,000!
Thank you @jwkyle13 and @UNITEARCH
