Questions

• Who can work in Ireland?

  Irish citizens, EU/EEA nationals, and those with valid work permits or visas may work there. Non-EU citizens require sponsorship and a work permit from the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment, obtained by employers before hiring.

• What contracts do Irish employers use?

  Permanent contracts, fixed-term contracts, and contract worker arrangements are standard. Most salaried roles are permanent; casual and temporary work also exist in retail, hospitality, and seasonal sectors. Contracts must specify hours, pay, and terms in writing before work begins.

• What hours do people work?

  The standard working week is 39 hours across five days. Employers may require longer hours; any excess typically qualifies as overtime, compensated at agreed rates or time off in lieu. Rest breaks are statutory during shifts.

• Do Irish employers ask for qualifications?

  Requirements vary by sector and role. The Leaving Certificate is standard for school-leavers; apprenticeships, vocational qualifications, and degrees are required for skilled trades and professional work. Employers routinely request references and proof of eligibility to work.

• What is a PPS number?

  The Personal Public Service number is essential for all workers, used for tax, PRSI contributions, and state benefits. Employers request it before hiring; applications are made to the Department of Social Protection and usually take several weeks.

• How does pay reach workers?

  Wages arrive monthly by bank transfer following tax and PRSI deductions. Payslips detail gross pay, deductions, and net amount. Payment occurs on a set date agreed in the contract; late payment breaches employment law.

• What is PRSI and how much is deducted?

  PRSI (Pay Related Social Insurance) is mandatory social insurance deducted from pay, contributing to pensions, benefits, and healthcare. Rates vary by employment class; employees typically contribute a percentage of earnings, with employers paying separately.

• What statutory leave is available?

  Workers are entitled to a minimum of 20 days annual leave yearly, plus statutory bank holidays (usually nine). Sick leave is available; after three days, medical certification may be required. Parental leave is available under statutory terms.

• What happens to overtime pay?

  Overtime compensation depends on the contract and agreement. Some roles offer enhanced hourly rates (time-and-a-half or double time); others provide time off in lieu. Employment law requires fair treatment; disputes are resolved through the Workplace Relations Commission.

• When is the typical working year structured around?

  The working year follows school term dates and nine statutory bank holidays spread throughout the year. Many sectors adjust schedules around summer school holidays; some industries have seasonal peaks. Employment rights and statutory leave apply consistently year-round.
