During Union Week, the ICTU organised awareness campaign which took place in late April and early May, SIPTU Health activists held dozens of events in health service workplaces from Sligo to Cork and Louth to Wexford.

SIPTU Sector Organiser Sharon Cregan said: “We were on the ground urging non-union health staff to stand with colleagues and join. If you benefit from union-won pay and conditions, it’s time to step up and strengthen our collective voice.”
