Compass Group Uk are the people who look after all payment and catering issues at the AVIVA. They are a quite reliable company who with any experiences ive heard of, will correctly rectify any mistakes in Payment. Im sure if you bring it up with the Manager in charge of you then you will be re-imbursed for any work you were not payed for.

I brought it up with my manager several times. Before after 4 weeks of back and forth it was eventually paid.

Leinster have confirmed their Heineken Cup quarter-final against Leicester will be played in the Aviva Stadium.
The match will take place on the weekend of 8-10 April
staff may need to add it to fixtures list

Are we getting rise/reduction in wages for 2011?,

I would say it'll stay the same. Nothing has been mentioned about a change to them anyway.

for stewards hired by aviva directly there is a big change of pay. instead of 65euro nett, you will now be paid 90euro gross. depending on your personal taxation situation you will either be better off by 23euro(88euro after USC deduction if you pay no tax) or worse off by 14 euro(51euro after tax at 41% and USC).... anyone on the 41% tax rate working full time will probably find it not worth their while working for 50euro odd after tax for 6 hours.

Can see them loosing a lot of very experienced stewards due to this.

Are there any voluntary stewards in Aviva Stadium?

this might sound a bit strange but i've been growing a beard for the last 2 months and i'm really liking it (makes me look older ) but i'm booked down for the 13th to work does that mean i have to shave it all off?, i mean its not scruffy or anything its fairly neat looking i'd probably only be pouring drinks anyway how strict are they when it comes to this?
i'm thinking of giving this event a miss if i have to i don't think the next event is until march anyway by which time i'll probably have shaved it haha

Sorry to break bad news but they will make you shave it off. I've seen countless people given the dirt cheap razors and told to shave it off or go home.

yeah they made me shave, it was quite painful, if i were you id bring my own razers and shaving cream on the off chance that you might get away with it

i hear big changes in store for the FAI run events. they have told aviva that they want severe reductions in steward numbers & supervisors, no packed lunch and an hour less working...could mean up to 250 less (paid) stewards and supervisors per FAI game.

yeah i understand why they do it but there's no way i'd turn up and shave it there and then it would be painful enough at home at this stage another thing using a cheap razor without cream :eek:

i think though they should be allowed to decide whether it looks scruffy or not if it does fair enough shave it off or you can't work but i think they could be more flexible about it to be honest

It's the IRFU that are going mad for changes because they made a balls in pricing and grouping their tickets.

The method of pay has been altered slightly, looking at the revised rates i'll be getting a fiver extra than before. Save millions that way they will!

Ehhh have you not bumped into devilwoman yet? The one who wouldn't let me wear a t-shirt (which couldnt be seen) under my polo shirt and hoodie despite it being -3 degrees and me on the top floor with the wind. I wore it nonetheless but she made a point of me removing it so i just went into the locker room and came back out unchanged.

Trust me, even if it was on a case by case basis, everyone would be made shave it off.

Why do hon stewards exist? Why dont they want to get paid like other stewards?

There could be safety issues if this happens

Honorary Stewards predate the Aviva Stadium. At rugby matches in Lansdowne Road all stewards in the stands were Honorary Stewards. Paid stewards only existed on the exterior of the ground and in the terraces. Honorary Stewards are representatives of the rugby clubs around Ireland and are guaranteed sight of the match, whereas paid ones are not.

They're already overstaffed at most rugby internationals in terms of stewards when honorary and paid numbers are combined.

Yeah they are massively overstaffed at the quietest of times, but thats in all aspects. I haven't been to one game yet where one bar or food section hasn't been sent home at half time. The amount of stewards as well is far too many. Especially with the substantial lower attendances they've been getting its quite obvious that they overstaff it and worry about it later.

Great nickname for her

I was recovering from a lung infection and on my first day back to the aviva, she gave out bangs to me for wearing a small t-shirt under my blouse.

How dare you get a lung infection and turn up for work in the Aviva and try and not get sick again!?!? That is not in the staff handbook!!

Reduce steward numbers and two people get onto the pitch? Shock Horror FAI.

Ah you must have, my bar shuts almost immediately afterwards. There's still cleaning to do though.

That'd be for the crowd control guys, separate to the stadium stewards. There's only about 30 of them at a match. Depends who's playing.
