It pays to check your wage slip for your entitlements

Financial advice with Grainne McGuinness

Hi, I have been in my current job for almost a year. When I joined I was sent information about what I thought was health cover and every month a deduction has been made from my salary. I have been told I will need some dental work soon and told a colleague I planned to claim on our work cover. But she told me what we have is not really health insurance and won’t cover the cost? Robert Kiely, Laois.

The writer sent me on the information he had been given and, unfortunately, his colleague is correct.
