RIGHT TO REQUEST REMOTE WORKING

28/4/2022

0 Comments

 
With many employees still working in a hybrid situation, there are a large amount of people requesting a remote working option on an ongoing basis. Currently this is not regulated, however, legislation has been introduced that when passed into law will give workers the right to request a remote working option. Employers will have the right to refuse on grounds to be stated in the bill. If the worker is dissatisfied there will be a right to bring the matter before the WRC.

The following is a non-exhaustive list of some of the reasons an employer can refuses a remote working request on business grounds:
  1. Potential negative impact on the quality of your product or service
  2. A potential negative impact on performance of the employee or other employees
  3. Concerns for the protection of intellectual property, confidentiality of information and data protection
  4. Health and safety issues with a home office or carrying out certain processes at home 
  5. Internet connectivity issues 
  6. Planned structural changes to the business 
  7. If the employee has recently been or, is currently involved in a formal disciplinary process

Irish Economic Outlook - In a time of war and peace

27/4/2022

0 Comments

 
The past couple of years have been shrouded in uncertainty and volatility, largely due to epidemiological and political events, rather than economic fundamentals per se. However, it is not possible to divorce economic developments from politics and pandemics, as they have had and continue to have a significant impact on economic performance. Before looking at the year ahead, it is always worthwhile to look back at what I said in this piece a year ago to see how that turned out. Last year I had to eat humble pie as the declaration of a global pandemic a few weeks after I wrote an upbeat piece in February 2020 changed everything.

This time last year I said that looking ahead to 2021, “it is possible to be optimistic about the global and the domestic economy. This is of course subject to all of the caveats about the mutating virus and the vaccines. The very stringent restrictions put in place here in Ireland and in many other countries at the end of 2020 could last well for the first quarter and possibly into the second quarter, and will obviously have a very significant impact on economic activity. There is not a lot that can be done about that.

FITNESS FOR WORK: GUIDANCE FOR EMPLOYERS AND EMPLOYEES AFTER COVID-19 ABSENCE

12/1/2022

The Health and Safety Authority HSA) has published interim guidance on its website to assist employers to manage workers’ return to work following Covid-19 related absence. The guidance can be considered within existing sickness and absence management procedures and policies.

Fitness for Work (FFW) refers to a state of physical and psychological health and well-being which enables a worker to carry out their work reliably, safely and efficiently and in a way that does not affect their safety or the safety of others. Most workers who contract Covid-19 will recover with no long term health effects. Some workers, however, may suffer serious or on-going health effects and need additional support to return to work.
​Maintaining communication with the absent worker is important and will help you in assessing whether the worker is fit / unfit to return
to work. Employers should apply existing policies and procedures to encourage workers back to work, after a longer absence due to COVID-19, in the same way that return to work following any long illness is managed.

ECONOMIES IN MIDST OF STRONG REBOUND

10/11/2021

Optimism regarding the outlook for the global economy has increased in recent months. This is on the back of the relatively successful vaccine rollout programmes, economies proving better able to adapt to the restrictions that were in place earlier in the year than previously  envisaged, and additional fiscal supports. This more upbeat perspective is evident in the raft of international agencies revising higher their economic growth forecasts over the summer.
 
The OECD is now forecasting that the global economy will grow by 5.8% this year and 4.4% in 2022, following a 3.5% contraction in 2020. This compares to its previous projections made at the end of 2020 for growth of 4.2% and 3.7% in 2021 and 2022, respectively. The IMF is forecasting similar strong growth rates for the world economy. Meanwhile, world trade is recovering strongly, after contracting by 8.5% last year. A rise of 8% is being pencilled in for this year, followed by growth of 6% in 2022. However, both the OECD and IMF point to marked differences in the economic recovery across countries.
