To School Secretaries & Caretakers: What a win. What a moment.

This is all yours - your campaign, your achievement. Without your determination & relentless organisation, we could never have gotten to this point.

Your pursuit of fairness & equal treatment has defined this strike

PENSION PARITY NOW

What a crowd making its way to the Dept of Public Expenditure 🪧🪧

Unbelievable. Well done to all the school secretaries and caretakers taking over the streets of Dublin today.

#PensionParity

[Kevin Callinan @kcallinan50]

I'm so sad to hear that @GAA_Palestine have had to cancel their trip. We in @forsa_union_ie were pleased and proud to sponsor the jerseys and kit for the children. #LetThemPlay

[Fórsa trade union @forsa_union_ie]

Happy Pride from Fórsa!

From Budapest to Ballymena, we're sending our solidarity and pride to our LGBTIA+ members and communities bravely and proudly marching.

Trade unions are for everyone!

💚Bród in Oibre, Bród in Fórsa 💚 #DublinPride

[Kevin Callinan @kcallinan50]

Working from home is an election issue.

But it's so much more important than that.

We need to resist the diktats to return to the office.

Instead, we should gather real evidence to inform policy.

My piece in today's @irishexaminer.

[President of Ireland @PresidentIRL]

To mark May Day today, President Higgins and his wife Sabina welcomed Trade Union Representatives to Áras an Uachtaráin

[Fórsa trade union @forsa_union_ie]

What an honour that @PresidentIRL chose to spend his last May Day in office with trade unions.

"Your movement is the greatest hope for economy, ecology, and justice

Your trade union campaign week needs to show everyone that there is dignity in work, and hope in the collective"

[Fórsa trade union @forsa_union_ie]

Did you know that school caretakers and secretaries don't have access to public pensions?

Our #ForsaEducation conference certainly does. The branch has a special message asking for your support for their motions today!

And sign the pledge! https://t.co/UulhGv9wmw

The trade union bloc at the Palestine march was honoured to meet UN Special Rapporteur @FranceskAlbs at the Gaza march today.

Her bravery and honesty have been a beacon for so many.

Keep marching. Keep boycotting. Keep demanding a permanent ceasefire and a free Palestine!

[Fórsa trade union @forsa_union_ie]

Hundreds more people killed by Israeli military airstrikes this week.

We need to turn our horror and heartbreak into action. Join the trade union bloc this Saturday 🇵🇸🇮🇪

📢Civil Service Members – do NOT change your current hybrid working

The Dept of Social Protection & Finance decided - without good reason or prior consultation - to reduce your remote working days

This is arbitrary attack on your terms and conditions. Members, check your emails

[Mehak Dugal @mehakdugal]

@MandyLaCombre Thanks Mandy, looking forward to catching up on this!

[Kevin Callinan @kcallinan50]

I'm very proud of the work of @mehakdugal and other @forsa_union_ie colleagues on the #StopTheStigma campaign which is being recognised internationally this afternoon.

[Fórsa trade union @forsa_union_ie]

Delighted to bring the #StopTheStigma campaign to Brussels. Periods and menopause are a workplace issue, and workplaces should work for everyone!

Thank you to our friends at @ETUI_org for having us present at their excellent conference on gender & occupational health and safety.

[Kevin Callinan @kcallinan50]

My thanks to all @forsa_union_ie reps who attended this morning; to my colleagues Grace Williams, Aisling Cusack and @mehakdugal for their work; to Sinéad from @AmarachResearch for the ongoing collaboration; and to @TASCblog's @oisingilmore, Tiarnán and Molly for the research.

[Fórsa trade union @forsa_union_ie]

Marking one year of genocide against a captive population. Marching in a huge trade union bloc for a Free Palestine and a #CeasefireNow.

Proud that the trade union movement has stood for peace and justice from the very beginning. We will never stop.

[Kevin Callinan @kcallinan50]

With @unicefireland's Peter Power, @forsa_union_ie's @mehakdugal and Treasurer Michael Smyth this afternoon to present a cheque from our members and branches in aid of the #Gaza appeal. This is in addition to the donation of €100k that the union made late last year.

Aer Lingus @ialpa pilots begin their 8-hour strike today, alongside an indefinite work to rule.

But there is a solution to this.

It's to pay pilots in line with inflation - a reasonable pay claim especially from a company that has had a 400% increase in profit.

[Amy Moran 🪩🫒 @amylmrn]

Solidarity and support to @IALPA @forsa_union_ie taking action today👩‍✈️ 400% increase in profits achieved only through the hard work of staff - It’s time they see the benefits! ✈️
