Paper publishes salary levels of trade union leaders

23.10.2009
With Ireland’s trade unions thrust into the spotlight as a winter of discontent becomes increasingly likely, the Irish Times has this morning published the salaries of a number of trade union leaders.

The paper reveals that the head of teachers union the INTO, John Carr, who oversees the INTO’ 35,000 members, has the highest salary of those surveyed at €172,000, with the earnings of Peter McLoone of Impact,  a union with 65,000 members, just behind him with a salary of €171,313.

Meanwhile, the General Secretary of the Association of Secondary Teachers in Ireland, John White, has a salary of €144,000, while the general secretary of the Teachers’ Union of Ireland, Peter MacMenamin, earns a salary of between €131,748 and €150,712.

Siptu President Jack O’Connor earned a salary of €124,895 in 2008. The trade union has about 215,000 members.

Blair Horan, the general secretary of the Civil and Public Services Union, which has 14,000 members, said he had a salary of “about €120,000”.

The paper says that seven of the 16 unions it contacted refused to reveal the pay levels of their bosses.
