Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Skills Needed to Support the Economic Recovery Plan: Discussion

Mr. Tony Donohoe:

We do not look at comparative wages.

The only comment I would make on that is that apprenticeships in the craft area tend to be governed by wage agreements and some apprenticeships which are pegged to the rate for a particular job are relatively well paid. However, they also have challenges in recruiting people. Beyond that, pay relativities are not something the expert group comments on.
