SIPTU, the country's largest trade union, is to recommend acceptance of the public sector pay proposals agreed last week.
A secret ballot vote of SIPTU members in the public service and 'Section 38' agencies will be held from Monday 12 September to Wednesday 5 October.
A 3% increase would be paid this year, backdated to February 2022. That would be followed by 2% from March 2023 and 1.5% or €750, whichever is the greater, from October 2023. SIPTU announced it was recommending acceptance of the deal following a meeting of its National Executive Council earlier today.
"The NEC also noted the position of the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform that economy-wide cost of living measures would accompany pay improvements," SIPTU said.
