Sinopsis
A Clare Restaurateur is rubbishing suggestions that hospitality staff earning sub-minimum wage in this county are being exploited. It follows a protest held by Bar and Restaurant workers trade union, Mandate at Leinster House this week calling for the rates of pay below the hourly national minimum wage of €12.70 to be scrapped. Currently, workers under 18 years of age can be paid €8.99 per hour in hospitality settings, 18 year-olds can receive €10.16 and 19 year-olds can be paid €11.43 per hour. Owner of Monk's Restaurant in Ballyvaughan Patrick O'Donoghue says the system rewards employees for their experience.
