Changes to Irish Employment Permits Legislation
We are pleased to publish this month a contribution entitled Changes to Irish Employment Permits Legislation, authored by our colleagues Ger Connolly and Jane Pilkington, partners, and Avril Daly and Caragh Deasy, associates, at the Irish law firm Mason Hayes & Curran.
As of 1 October 2014, a new employment permits regime is in force in Ireland following the commencement of the Employment Permits (Amendment) Act 2014. This contribution takes a look at the new categories of employment permits under the Act and considers how the elimination of certain gaps in the existing regime will practically affect employers and individuals alike.
