Welcome for report on workplace innovation in Ireland
A report by the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions into workplace innovation in Ireland has been welcomed by SIPTU.
In one of its key findings the ‘Work Organisation and Innovation in Ireland’ report concludes that workplace innovation helps to secure and sustain employment and workplaces.
SIPTU Manufacturing Division Organiser, Gerry McCormack, said, “The report confirms that SIPTU’s strategy of using workplace innovation to enhance and sustain manufacturing employment in Ireland is the correct one. It also emphasises the crucial role that organisations such as the Ideas Institute play in providing the expertise and training that result in successful outcomes to the process of developing workplace innovation.”
At the report’s publication on Thursday (27th June) the Minister for Enterprise and Innovation, Sean Sherlock, also welcomed its findings and the suggestion that examples in Ireland be used to promote workplace innovation across the EU.
