Hundreds of cars off the road. We need to start framing remote work as a traffic-saving necessity given our overcapacity infrastructure and watch the outrage merchants go from slating it to promoting it.
Haha get stuffed AIB
What is it with people born from the 1990’s onwards not wanting to work or in particular GO TO WORK. Country is gone to the dogs
But wont somebody think of the corporate landlords?
Up the workers.
Good for them! and happy for them
Fantastic news, two days a week in the office should be standard across the board. The main takeaway from this is to join a union.
I’d imagine interested buyers in PTSB are following this also..
Delighted for them – up the workers. It is just crazy for employers to be so inflexible. I used to have to commute 3 hours per day to a job where I sat on Teams meetings all day – pointless, a waste of my time, energy, sanity and money. I would advise anyone in this situation with your jobs to talk to your colleagues and get organised. The power of your employer, is in many cases, an illusion.
Next up is the Department of Finance. They are forcing staff to return an extra day a week, from 2 days to 3 days.
The great only appear great as we live on our knees,
Let Us Rise.
Win for the Indian office as most of the jobs will be sent there
Try contacting a Government Department
The only people suffering from people working remote are corporate landlords.
The benefits of hybrid and work from home are ridiculous. Far less traffic pollution, better mental health in the majority of the population, cost of living is easier as people can live less city based. Even for the companies they get such a better talent solution as they can hire without needing to focus on having someone based on site.
I know as a fully remote person too I perform way better at home, I have way less sick days as if I’m a little under the weather I just have the heating on and dress a little cosier and sit at the laptop.
This is a good step in the right direction and happy for the workers
This doesn’t seem like much of a win. Sounds like they still have to go to hubs. Cars are still on the road somewhere. People are needlessly filling up public transport to go and sit in a hub and do exactly what they would do at home.
ESB are having the same fight internally at the moment.
WORKER POWER 💪
The senior managers all swan in from nice single digit postcodes with good transport links. Traffic isn’t an issue for them.
AIB. You and anyone with your views can get absolutely fucked to oblivion.
From reading the article this looks like an intrem intrem agreement rather than a „win“. Negotiations are paused for the holidays and will resume in January.
This is promising but doesn’t eliminate the possibility that return to work is layoffs in disguise. If it’s true that AIB’s motivation is avoiding paying out redundancy it makes sense for them to punt till after the holidays. Workers losing their jobs is never popular but losing them in the weeks before Xmas is a PR nightmare.
Did a union rep write that article and spinning a win? From my understanding the AIB staff are not happy about this, nothing has changed for them.
Honestly I would link remote work to rates of corporate tax. Any company whose workers are capable of being remote. Who forces them to commute. Should pay higher rates of corporation tax etc. As they’re putting more traffic o. The road, increasing emissions and wear and tear on infrastructure.
Force your staff in pointlessly. Grand, 25% tax rate on all profit. Which is ringfenced for transport infrastructure and combating climate change.
In the last two months I think the traffic around Dublin has been worse than ever. There’s clearly not much long term thinking on drastically improving the transit/roads infrastructure to accommodate extra travellers. It would be such an easy win for the government to go all in on remote work to tackle the traffic issues.
God save the bankers!
