An Post workers set for pay hike

Ten thousand An Post workers could be in line for a pay increase after enduring an effective pay freeze for the past seven years.

This follows the Labour Court stating that the continuance of the pay freeze proposed by An Post “is no longer a viable proposition” in spite of a warning from An Post that a concession would considerably worsen the financial health of the company.

In its claim, the Communications Workers Union (CWU) is seeking a 6% ‘cost of living’ increase.
