Section 2.12.2 of the Public Service Stability Agreement (PSSA) 2018 to 2020 provides that in recognition of work life balance issues that may arise, an opportunity shall be offered to public servants to permanently revert their working hours to pre-Haddington Road Agreement hours. Any individual exercising this option will have their pay reduced commensurately, in line with previous agreements. The PSSA states that the application of this arrangement at sectorial level will depend on service delivery requirements and business needs.

As required, the HSE is implementing the provisions of the PSSA 2018 to 2020.
