I work part-time. about 20 hours a week, for which I earn 16 euro per hour. The work is quite demanding and includes weekends and evenings. No other perks or benefits and no extra cash for working anti-social hours. No travel involved. Am I being screwed or is 16 Euro an hour a fair wage?

Based on a 40 hour week it is 33k. Not wonderful but well above minimum wage territory. I suppose it really depends on what you are doing. If you were operating on brains I would say its underpaid. If you were working as an assistant manager in Dunnes its about right. If you are answering phones in a reception area again about right.
