Irish Film Industry: Discussion (Resumed)

11:00 am

Mr. John Arkins:

We have in the region of 450 members in the Irish Film Workers Association. We do not charge for membership. We do not get anything out of this. Our sole role is to educate workers about 48 pieces of legislation that were passed by this House that governs every aspect of their working life and the workplace. It is an educational role we have. My whole working life has already been negotiated and been agreed, my maximum working week, my maximum working year, my maximum working day, my rest days, my parental leave etc.
