SIPTU refers FAI members pay claims to Workplace Relations Commission

"Our members largely operate at the grassroots level of the game in Ireland and as such it is their work which lays the foundations for success at the national level."

SIPTU members in the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) have referred a claim for the restoration of their pay and employer’s pension contributions to the Workplace Relations Commission (WRC).

“Our members working in the FAI received very substantial cuts to their pay in 2012,2 SIPTU Sector Organiser, Denis Hynes, said. “Some workers lost over one third of their pay while all lost at least 10%.”
