Hospital support workers to strike in row over a job evaluation scheme
Hospital support workers say they have been left with no option but to strike in a row over a job evaluation scheme.
SIPTU claims the government has not honoured commitments made in previous public sector agreements since 2010.
A 24 hour strike will take place on Thursday the 20th of June at 38 hospitals and healthcare facilities around the country including four here in Cork.
SIPTU's Deputy General Secretary for the Public Sector John King, says the government needs to act on their concerns in order to avert the strike:
