dole scheme
Poll: Should dole payments be linked to a person's PRSI contributions?
Similar social insurance contribution schemes exist in other countries in Europe.
TAOISEACH LEO VARADKAR may link dole payments to people’s past working history and PRSI contributions.
The proposed new dole scheme would see those who have been in long-term employment entitled to a higher payment.
The plan would adversely impact on long-term unemployed people who would not have the same PRSI contribution as someone who has been in the workforce for a significant amount of time.
So in today’s poll we’re asking, do you think dole payments should be linked to a person’s PRSI contributions?
