Image: Sam Boal HEALTH MINISTER SIMON Harris has said the HSE is looking to hire non-medical professionals through its Call for Ireland recruitment drive and new hires will be paid.
“There is a role for everybody. In fact, there may even be some roles that people will be able to do remotely. And remember people are going to get sick of things that aren’t the coronavirus during this period of time. We’re going to need people working in primary care, we may well need people checking in remotely on some of our older citizens that are more vulnerable people and help provide them with advice over the phone.
“So we really are overwhelmed. I mean at a time of great difficulty, it would warm your hearts to see that people are really responding, and we need people to continue to do this,” he said.“The truth is, I don’t know,” he said.“At a certain point… we will advise the elderly and people who have a long-term illness to stay at home for several weeks. We are putting in place the systems to ensure that if you are one of them, you will have food, supplies and are checked on.
The engagement with these companies, which was described as “fruitful”, is being done through the IDA and the HSE. Concerns have been raised by some experts and TDs about whether a ‘sunset clause’ which is time limited should be added to the legislation, to ensure the laws don’t roll on beyond the current crisis.“No one wants to get to this point.

The teachers. They are all on FULL pay and sitting at home. Now that exams are being cancelled it's a no brainer to get them working. As a tax payer I'm very unhappy about teachers getting full pay for no work.
Great opportunities for people recently laid off. Good to see the country coming together
