Kenny says Public Sector workers no longer have job security.

Saab Ed

So public sector workers no longer have job security that normally comes with a public sector position. Well that's according to Enda Kenny today. Does that suggest it should be reflected upwards in their pay given that the usual security of their position is now gone! In fairness to public sector workers (which I'm not one of) theuve always been seen to sacrifice wages for security. If that's gone then why work for less, especially if -at the lower end of things- you can actually get better wages in the private sector.

No Joe Duffy "I know a fella in the public sector" crap now, this is not a public v private sector debate. This is a genuine look at how we might actually end up with nothing but the worst of the worst in the public sector.

Kenny is just getting fed up at public service workers, just as the troika and nearly everyone else is. They are among the highest paid public sector workers in the world at an average of 49k a year, and have a shorter working week and statistically much more sickies than the private sector, and golden pensions, so Kenny is right for once.

Was it not "If CP fails, then there will be no job security"? That was what I heard on the news. Usually saber rattling

Have you got a link? I don't see anything about this. I saw an article about Pat Rabbitte ruling out compulsory redundancies, however.

I think what was actually said was no job security without the protection of Croke park ... Renegotiation etc was not explicitly ruled out

One would hope it just means "Do your job or get fired". Y'know, like it does in most jobs.
