Aldi to pay €11.50 minimum wage
The German chain is opening two new shops next month and is also promising recruits minimum hourly wage rates which it says beat what is offered elsewhere in the sector.
Aldi Ireland attributes the expansion plans to significant sales growth, with the shops opening in Knocknacarra in Galway and Newcastlewest, Co Limerick, on November 19, bringing their numbers here to 122. The seven new outlets due to open in 2016 will be in counties Cork, Dublin, Kildare (Athy), and Westmeath.
