Pobal pay cuts reversed

Pay cuts introduced in Pobal in 2013 are to be reversed under an agreement accepted by an overwhelming majority of staff. The deal will see salaries below €65,000 a year increased by €1,000 a year from this week.

The organisation, which channels government and EU funds to community and voluntary projects, has also agreed to increase its employer pension contribution by 1%, and introduce an income protection scheme for cases of serious illness.

The deal, which was accepted by 99% of IMPACT members in a ballot, also introduces improvements in flexitime bands and access to 1.5 days flexi-leave per flexi time period. And reduced annual leave, introduced for new entrants in 2013, is to be brought in line with pre-2013 entitlements.

Management has also agreed to implement a shorter working year scheme under the agreement.
