Siptu members employed by daa at Dublin Airport are planning to ballot for industrial action in a dispute over staff wages

In response, the daa has said that this week’s wages were transferred on Wednesday but that there was an issue with the bank transfer and that separately, a cyberattack on the payment software platform had disrupted the company’s attendance records. “This week wages for thousands of airport workers that were due to be paid on Wednesday 21 September did not arrive in their accounts on time.”

“In May, following the presentation by Siptu members of a letter to the chairperson of the daa Board of Directors concerning the difficulties with the payment system, there was a commitment from the company that these problems would be rectified. This has not happened.” “We kept everyone fully informed on progress on Wednesday and personally spoke to any colleagues who might not receive payment into a non-Irish financial institution until the next day. daa Management has already apologised to staff for any unnecessary stress or inconvenience this temporary delay may have caused,” the spokeperson said.

The spokesperson said that management has been in regular and frequent contact with all trade union partners while working through the issues the outage caused and the processes that were consequently put in place, “at a time of rapidly accelerated international travel with hundreds of new employees joining the business as a result”.
