Currently, workers under the age of 21 have a lower minimum wage than the rest of the working population. This is grossly unfair and out of line with how the majority of EU member states treat younger workers.

Abolish sub-minimum wage rates for young workers now!
The CWU fully supports the call from ICTU for the Government to stop delaying and to fully implement the recommendations of the Low Pay Commission.

Bad bosses go on the naughty list
Covalen’s bosses are channelling their inner Grinch this Christmas season. Instead of spreading Christmas cheer, they’re serving up a corporate Scrooge moment, turning what should be a time of joy into a season of uncertainty.

This International Men’s Day, we’re shining a light on men’s mental health. In Ireland, 75% of suicides are men, and research shows men are far less likely to seek help for depression, anxiety, or thoughts of suicide.

Over 200 staff at TikTok Ireland are standing up for themselves, pushing back against a full return to the office. Many live outside Dublin and fear that returning five days a week will cause them to become absent parents, adding hours of commuting and stress to their daily lives.
