Health, social care workers in strike over pay

The workers belonging to SIPTU and Fórsa are employed in a number of so-called Section 39 bodies, which are funded by the State to deliver services including hospices and home helps.

Section 39 workers are not classified as public servants, but suffered the same pay cuts during the recession. While 50 agencies have agreed a roadmap for restoration, workers in 250 similar bodies are still waiting.

Boom is def back with all the pigs lining up to get their noses into the trough. This pathetic country will never learn lessons of past. And don't blame politicians, developers, banks because everyone partied

It will hardly have a big impact. They don't exactly break a sweat any day they do work.

Solidarity. The rest of the country should join them. If the BRITISH invaders were doing it we'd be at war by now
