Commitment

Introduce a Living Wage of at least €15 an hour

What this means

  • People Before Profit promised in their 2024 general election manifesto to introduce a living wage of at least 15 euro an hour for all workers in Ireland.[source]
  • The commitment also includes refundable tax credits aimed at supporting lower-paid workers, giving them more take-home pay.[source]
  • This promise falls under enterprise and employment policy and was first stated on 14 November 2024 as part of the party's election platform.[source]
  • The commitment is currently at the promised stage only, meaning no delivery date has been set and it has not yet been acted on in government.[source]
  • Tracking this promise matters for accountability because it allows voters to check whether People Before Profit push for this wage floor if they gain influence in government.[source]
