Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Reopening the Economy: Supports for Business

Dr. Orlaigh Quinn:

Maybe I will come back to the Deputy on that. My understanding is that if there is any change in an employee's contract in terms of salary, it is for negotiation between the employer and employees.

The wage subsidy scheme, as the Deputy said, only goes up to 85% so there has to be agreement after that. Again, the WRC is available to people if they have concerns or complaints about their employment.
