The Government are not looking after the small employers in this country. Min wage increases, pension enforcement auto enrolment, increased bank holidays, sick pay and now Peter Burke wants the employer to pay 5 days for a girl who suffers an mis carriage which of course we wouldn’t wish on any girl. The Government however need to realise that the Employer can’t afford to keep giving. These days off represent a potential 8 weeks off for an employee. It’s simply not sustainable. Boxer Moran is the Santa Claus that keeps giving - maybe Boxer - it’s really all a balls. Spend spend spend - how about try and sustain the small employers of Ireland. Will someone in the Government start realising what the small employer is going through. We as accountants are seeing it everyday. We welcome a meeting with any politician on this - we need to educate those is charge of the wheel.
