""It defies belief that they have spent six years waiting for their skills and expertise to be recognised. Our members have Unite's total support in this fight for fair pay.""
""Recognition of ambulance workers' expanded roles and responsibilities has been ignored for six years, and our members have run out of patience.""
""Siptu members intend to take strike action due to the NAS's failure to update staff salary scales to reflect changes in their responsibilities and workload over the last 20 years.""
Unite and Siptu unions are escalating industrial action, starting with a work-to-rule on May 11, followed by a 24-hour strike on May 12. Additional strikes are planned for May 19 and May 26. The dispute involves emergency medical staff who claim management has not implemented a 2020 review of their roles or paid a recommended 5% wage increase. Union leaders emphasize the need for immediate recognition of workers' expanded responsibilities and fair compensation to avoid further action.
