Скачать или смотреть School Secretaries and Caretakers: ‘It’s a Real Tragedy We’ve Been Forced to Strike’

School secretaries and caretakers have begun indefinite strike action.

They are campaigning for 2,600 school staff to be included in the public service pension scheme and other entitlements.

The industrial action began as thousands of schools prepare for the start of the new academic year.
After a union-led campaign several years ago, secretaries in most schools were put on the public payroll in 2022, meaning they no longer had to sign on to social welfare during the summer holidays and became entitled to sick pay and maternity leave.

Although they are now being paid directly by the Department, most are not classified as public servants.
