Background
The Irish government's 2009 emergency budget and 2010 budget imposed pay cuts on a range of public sector workers. A number of strike actions followed.[2]
The agreement, which was formally titled "The Public Service Agreement 2010-2014", was signed on 6 June 2010 by ICTU. Against a background of layoffs and pay cuts in the private sector, the government agreed not to impose public sector layoffs or further public sector pay cuts.[3]
In return the public sector unions agreed to call no industrial action, and to cooperate on wide scale reforms of the public sector aimed at increasing efficiency, flexibility and redeployment and at reducing cost and headcount.[4]
According to the implementation body, as of March 2012, headcount had been reduced by 28,000 and the annual pay bill had been reduced by €3.1 billion.[5] Over 7,000 public servants were reportedly redeployed.[6]
