Meetings scheduled on breakthrough ruling for Roscommon home helps
SIPTU will hold an information meeting for Roscommon HSE home help workers on Thursday October 17 at 7.30pm in Hannon’s Hotel. The purpose of the meeting is to explain the recent Labour Court ruling which establishes a new floor of rights and protections within the workplace. The ruling follows an intensive campaign of protest, lobbying, and campaigning by SIPTU home help activists for the last year. There are over 200 HSE home help workers based in Roscommon, and the meetings are open to both members and non-members of SIPTU.
