Last Thursday we let you know that we intended to serve notice for industrial action on the Health Service Executive and Section 38 Voluntary Hospitals. We confirm that this notice was served.

Fórsa and the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation have served notice of industrial action to the HSE today (Monday 10th March), marking an escalation in the dispute over the effect of the HSE’s ‘Pay and Numbers Strategy’ which imposed a fixed employment ceiling across all health services.

Check out the March 2025 issue of WIN magazine. The World of Irish Nursing and Midwifery. 

The “Pay and Numbers Strategy” cannot be allowed to be a ‘done deal’. Staff deserve transparency and a voice in the decision-making process.  

A vacancy has now arisen, for a very experienced Office Administrator, in our head office, which is located at The Whitworth Building, North Brunswick Street, Dublin 7, D07 8NPH.   

The union has stated that this has been the worst February for hospital overcrowding on record, the second month in a row with record overcrowding.
