We need luck to meet job creation target

On February 13 Taoiseach Enda Kenny announced his Government’s action plan to create 100,000 new jobs over the following four years.

The plan also envisages 2,000,000 people in employment by 2020.

To succeed, the strategy will need to pass milestones of 25,000 new jobs each year. That will require a sustained average net growth of 6,000 to 7,000 jobs per quarter.
