Community sector workers to consider pay agreement.

Oibrithe san earnáil pobail le breathnú ar chomhaontú pá.

Workers in the community and voluntary sector are to consider proposals for a pay dispute settlement that have been accepted by their representatives.

Tá oibrithe san earnáil pobail agus dheonach le breathnú ar mholtaí réitigh maidir le haighneas pá a bhfuil glactha ag a gcuid ionadaithe leo.

The unions and the Government reached an agreement on the dispute in the Workplace Relations Commission last night and its contents are being presented to workers in the next few days.

Tháinig na ceardchumainn agus an Rialtas ar chomhaontú faoin aighneas sa Choimisiún um Chaidreamh san Áit Oibre aréir agus táthar lena bhfuil ann a chur faoi bhráid na n-oibrithe as seo go ceann cúpla lá.

It is understood that the agreement proposes to give workers a 9.25% pay increase over the two years between October 2024 and October 2026, and also promises to include the community and voluntary sector in future pay agreements.

Tuigtear go moltar sa chomhaontú ardú pá de 9.25 faoin gcéad a thabhairt do na hoibrithe i gcaitheamh an dá bhliain idir Deireadh Fómhair 2024 agus Deireadh Fómhair 2026, agus gealltar freisin an earnáil pobail agus dheonach a chur san áireamh i gcomhaontuithe pá as seo amach.

Workers include people in various charities and agencies that provide healthcare services on behalf of the State.

Áirítear i measc na n-oibrithe daoine i gcatharnais agus i ngníomhaireachtaí éagsúla a chuireann seirbhísí cúraim shláinte ar fáil thar ceann an Stáit.

Last month, workers in those organizations voted in favor of going on strike if a resolution to the dispute was not reached.

An mhí seo caite, vótáil oibrithe sna heagraíochtaí sin i bhfabhar dul ar stailc mura dtiocfaí ar réiteach ar an aighneas.

They accused the Government of not yet implementing a pay agreement made in October 2023.

Chuir siad i leith an Rialtais nár cuireadh i bhfeidhm fós comhaontú pá a rinneadh i nDeireadh Fómhair 2023.

The Department of Children, Equality and Disability has stated that the community and voluntary sector is relied upon to provide a good number of essential services and that they should be fairly compensated for the invaluable work they do.

Tá sé ráite ag an Roinn Leanaí, Comhionannais agus Míchumais go bhfuiltear ag brath ar lucht na hearnála pobail agus deonaí le riar maith seirbhísí riachtanacha a sholáthar agus gur cóir iad a chúiteamh mar is ceart as an obair iomardúil a dhéanann siad.
