€13 an hour??? Jesus christ the wages in Ireland are still shockingly low by the looks of it, how the fuck would you live any kind of life with that money?
Can’t argue there. Under normal circumstances it might not be too bad but right now,not a chance would I do that job. And €13 an hour? Are they having a laugh? If they want someone to to a job that miserable, they should at least pay decently for it.
Unsurprisingly, their reviews are going into abyss
€13 an hour for that b*llocks?! Insulting
That’s €2080 a month before tax and deductions.
“responsive employer” has to be the most laughable statement on there. We’re in the fifth month of staff shortages in the airport. Plus the poor souls that take these jobs will probably just be crowd control for the ongoing situation. Its not just the DAA either, airlines and ground handling agencies have been haemorrhaging employees since covid. This wont solve things. At most it will just give people travelling through the airport more faces to scowl at.
In an effort to reduce crowding and wait times at Dublin Airport, passengers will be knocked unconscious by soothing gases, scooped by front-loaders, dumped into cargo bins, and put onto flights. : )
And still not a guaranteed 40 hour contract.
Alright I’ll do it.
Everyone just PM me your complaints and I’ll bring them with me on day 1
Do they have some kind of an agreement where they have to “show an attempt” to resolve the staff shortage in order to keep government subsidies, but don’t have to actually do it? That’s the only way I can explain this kind of bollox.
20 hours guaranteed but must be available for 40 every week, so can’t get a second job. 13 euro an hour. Shift work. Stand there getting lifted out of it.
There is no staffing crisis. My son is 16 and applying everywhere. They want experienced men who are stacked up like sardines in bedsits to do these jobs and live on 260 a week plus Hap or whatever assistance they can get.
Why are my taxes paying peoples rents when they have full time jobs?
It’s an absolute swindle.
If there was one job id definitely not do right now this one would win by a mile!
I’m surprised it’s not a Job Bridge.
The supply is low and the demand is “high” so therefore the salary should be high, is that not what is supposed to happen? It’s happening with houses so why doesn’t it translate to jobs? Do dublin airport even care about this situation, it doesn’t look like it with that pay.
You couldn’t pay rent with that sort of wage, never mind food, bills or pints.
€13 ph.
Twats still haven’t learned.
I actually interviewed for this job and ended up turning it down. The hours were shit, your shifts can be wildly different with not much notice, and they wanted me to get a background check from 3 different countries that I’ve lived in (UK, Ireland, Japan). Just wasn’t worth the amount of hassle for 13 quid an hour and sleep deprivation
I used to earn $23 AUD an hour (€15.30) stacking shelves in a supermarket in Australia in 2009-10.
I got $31 on Sundays (€20.70)
My rent for a double room in an inner city suburb of Melbourne called Carlton was $535 per month (€358)
Life was so affordable compared to now where people are on €13 per hour paying rent of €750+
€13 an hour and no guarantee of 40 hours per week
Meanwhile, govt is scratching their heads wondering why people leave the country so often.
For what it’s worth – this is the job listing for the actual security screening staff. Pay €14.14, guaranteed 30 hours must be available 40. Still nowhere near good enough.
€13 per hour? I get more pulling pints in the local and I get to bitch back at stupid complaints!
13 per hour?
That’s €13 before tax on a zero hours contract and living in Dublin where a coffee is like €4 Hmmm
When I heard the director of Dublin airport on Pat Kenny he said these issues are his fault. Who in their right mind would do that job. I wouldn’t do it for less than €40 an hour and I’d still be questioning myself.
€13/hr, 30 hrs guaranteed? Thats like €1200/mo takehome?
Whats the move then, just live at the airport?
I will do it for £30 an hour, minimum 40 hours contract, plus the ability to slam the phone down at the very first profanity used on any interaction
€13/hour isn’t a competitive rate at all for that job… can’t imagine why they are always backed up.
13 bucks an hour, unsociable hours, 20-hour contracts. seriously they want staff they are gonna have to pay them. I see the end of cheap airlines.
