The number of OPW staff currently (21 March 2024) based at the Rock of Cashel are as follows:
| Grade | Number of Staff |
|---|---|
| Guide | 16 |
| General Operative | 1 |
The number of Guides based at the Rock of Cashel will increase further during busier Summer months and there will be a further six OPW Guides working there from April/May of this year.
There is a second general operative assigned to the Rock of Cashel by Mallow National Monument division during the busier summer months.
When there are conservation works taking place on site there would be additional OPW craft workers and general operatives on site with numbers varying depending on the project.
