Does anybody know whats ahead for Dublin?
A lot have gone in the last week but are more cuts ahead in the short to medium term?
Have also heard they are trying to cut the package from 6 weeks to 2 weeks per year in the next round.
Is this legal or can anyone give any feedback from a legal standpoint?

@ke settle down.. I was WFR last year and your right it was 6 weeks per year but capped... means you get 4 from Dell and 2 from the government but maxed at 2 years wages max... you max out after 16 years service
@OP Bro, WHAT??? 2-6 WEEKS per YEAR? In the US, we get ONE week per year lol. Count yourself lucky.
Yes.
@c5 is that all or they give you 2 months extra in lieu of notice?
Buddy of mine just got made redundant last week and he got 4 weeks for each year of service plus the statutory 2 weeks government for each year of service which is capped at 600 a week. This is in Ireland.
Well The Irish Workers need to speak up about this if it is true, or question this whether it be true or not.
I'm thinking personally this may be just a rumour.
I'm in Ireland and I don't want to lose my job, but with the usual redundancy payments would allow us time to find another job.
I know we all say we want out but it is the uncertainty in my personal case.
It's not a nice situation expecting to be made redundant at any time.
I've noticed there are a certain age group that seem to be leaving lately. Over a certain age. Maybe I will keep my job but we just never truly know.
