Promoting the Recruitment Executive Degree Programme with National College of Ireland and highlighting the available SOLAS (An tSeirbhís Oideachais Leanúnaigh agus Scileanna) grant for employers is a great initiative to attract potential apprentices. Additionally, suggesting upskilling opportunities for current employees not only enhances the skills and knowledge of your workforce but also fosters loyalty and retention. Having 42 employers already participating in the ERF/NCI Apprenticeship speaks volumes about the programme’s effectiveness and credibility. Sharing testimonials or success stories from these employers can further encourage others to join the initiative. Check out some of these below. #generationapprentice #recruitment #apprenticeship Janice O'Rourke (Assoc CIPD) Geraldine King Siobhan M Kinsella MBA Anna Douglas Lorraine Mooney

From 15 May 2024, spouses and partners of General Employment Permit holders and Intra-Company Transfer Permit holders who have applied for and been granted family reunification will now be registered on a Stamp 1G, rather than a Stamp 3 and will be permitted to work in Ireland. As an exceptional measure, spouses and partners already in Ireland and registered with a Stamp 3 permission do not have to re-register to have their permission varied. Their permission has been automatically varied by the Department of Justice and prospective employers can be provided with the Department of Justice’s Notice to Employers which explains the arrangement. As an employer, should you wish to employ a Stamp 3 holder who is a spouse or partner of a General Employment Permit or Intra-Company Transfer Permit holder, you may accept the Notice to Employers and the employee’s IRP card endorsed with a Stamp 3 as proof of entitlement to work, without the requirement for a separate employment permit. After 15 May 2025 at the latest, all eligible Stamp 3 holders will have been required to renew their IRP card and will then receive a Stamp 1G endorsement on their next IRP card. Click here for the Notice to Employers: https://lnkd.in/e6tq5VX6 For more information, please contact: Julie Galbraith, Partner, Employment Emma Quinn, Associate, Employment
