Phase 4 Pay??

tunner

Im going to be attested in afew weeks lads and fingers crossed im on the way to that but I was just windering if someone can tell me how much we will get (net) per week on phase 4 with the increased levy etc. This place is mad for the rumours and if what I hear is correct then Im in trouble!! There is a ready reckoner on the GRA site but it doesnt say what your net amount would be. Assuming I have no loans etc.

An approx figure would be great and no guesses please..:)

Cheers

You might try sticking this out in the main emergency services area not just recruitment more likely to get a phase 4 to read it.

Wow, if you were working minimum wage you wouldn't make much less than that.

I hear guys at work complaining about how good public servants have it. Wonder if they'd still like to trade places.

The wages do get better to be fair and honest but not that much. A Garda or any non ranking or higher public servant will never make a fortune from the job. They will get along but in the boom times we had the same wage when a lot were getting increases left right and centre.

Still though considering what's involved in the job it appears quite low. I suppose there are a lot of people out there who want to be Gardai, so like any job if there's surplus supply wages will be lower.

Nobody joins AGS to get rich. Normally its just the job that attracts people (nobody thinks of the pension at 20 yrs, although the media would report it differently:rolleyes:)

Here is a link to the pay scale. Hope you can get access to it. Its the second box and shows years served etc. before tax of course

Interesting reading, would clear up a lot of misconceptions doing the rounds at the moment if people read that. I totally agree that it is a love for the job itself that attracts recruits. That shouldn't allow those in charge to short change those on the front line. Wages don't have to be high, just sufficient to adequately compensate people for the job they do.

For information of AGS spouses/partners. "Big Cheque" is a euphamism for....the cheque we get....that all the other monthly expenses are taken out of....or something.

Phew. Mrs DW needs a new iron, wants an electric one. Can't be throwing money away, Whitewater!

Why are guards only too happy to discuss their salaries, detuctions, overtime etc in public? Whether it's in the pub or on the internet, the guard is the only one in the room telling all and sundry about how much/little they earn!

What always was and ever will be I guess.

TBH - working in the emergency services or in hospitals is only for a certain group of people who can handle the stress and even revel in it.

No amount of money would make me do my job if I hated it - but the caveat is that because we love our jobs, we don't need huge financial renumeration to make us go out and get on with it.
