Here to help you make sense of the Irish minimum wage

At Employers Direct, we know that increases to the National Minimum Wage (NMW) in Ireland can create HR issues for your business. That’s why we stay on top of the latest legislation, to help your business. For instance, a new ’Living Wage’ is set to be phased in over four years starting in 2023, a wage that will be set at 60% of the median wage in any given year. So, it’s now more important than ever for you to speak to someone who knows your minimum wage obligations inside out, such as an Employers Direct advisor.
