SIPTU has a clear message for public servants scheduled to work from home on Wednesday. Don't do it. Don't open your laptop. Don't check your emails. Don't teach online. Don't answer your phone. A strike only works when the work stops. Remote work is work. #UnionStrike

In ten days, SIPTU members across health, local government, State agencies and education will take to the picket line. This is about more than one dispute. It is about the cost of living, properly funded public services and better living standards for all working people.

Public funding brings public accountability. ❝ The FAI cannot ask the State and the football community to support its plans while continuing to deny its own workers collective bargaining rights. SIPTU Deputy General Secretary Greg Ennis siptu.ie/siptu-calls-on-oire…

SIPTU calls on Oireachtas committee to challenge FAI over refusal to bargain with staff
