HomeRevaluation of working conditions and wages for essential workers . Annex 3.3., Country study on Ireland
Publication metadata
This country case explores the situation of essential workers in Ireland in the context of the COVID-19 emergency, with a focus on women and migrant workers in low-paid, frontline occupations. The study first provides a definition of essential workers in this country, together with key socio-demographic characteristics. It then analyses, based on existing literature and selected stakeholder interviews, the main impacts of COVID-19 on working conditions. Finally, it illustrates key policy measures and agreements adopted in Ireland to support essential workers and their personal and professional lives. This document was provided by the Policy Department for Economic, Scientific and Quality of Life Policies at the request of the committee on Employment and Social Affairs (EMPL).
