Planned strikes by health and community workers called off

The strike by health and community workers, due to begin today, has been called off.

It follows crunch talks at the Workplace Relations Commission, which ended in the early hours of this morning.

5 thousand workers employed in the community and voluntary sector were due to start industrial action in their attempts to achieve pay parity with HSE staff.

Fórsa, SIPTU, and the INMO have confirmed a set of proposals have been brokered - including pay increases backdated to April 2023, along with commitments to address the funding issues in the sector.
