I accept that. The other area that appears to be unregulated is agency employment. The representatives have spoken about employees working for between €10 and €11.50 an hour. When I worked in the meat industry, awarding bonuses was standard as a means to increase productivity levels. It is unbelievable that people are working for these wages. I assume the agency is getting a margin. Has the MRCI done anything to understand what the agency contracts demand of employees? That is an area that needs to be challenged in the future.
