What employers can expect from the new government?

Despite a robust economy Irish business owners and managers have been screaming out that they are bearing the burden and that profit levels have been cut through higher minimum wages and a slew of new benefits for employees including sick and holiday pay. The hospitality sector has been among the most vociferous in its demands for a cut in VAT rates. They look as if they’ll get their wish but will the new government slash red tape and really encourage entrepreneurialism? Joe discusses this further with Peter Burke who has been retained as the Enterprise Minister and Joe began by asking him what employers can expect from the new government?
