Can’t work in Ireland

A young man from the U.K. with the electrotechnical NVQ L3, 2391 and 18th Edition has been excluded from a job in the Republic of Ireland because their NVQ is said to acquire a level 6 status as indeed does the Scottish NVQ. The NVQ L3 in the U.K. is mapped only to Level 5. The essential criteria for the job was level 6. Believe it or not, the job is nothing other than installing meters for ESB.

anyone know how these qualifications are mapped?

  • You must have a fast bike, or live right next to a ferry terminal!

    My point is that you need a visa/work permit/security check/means of funding yourself during your stay if you wish to work in Oz or the US.

    My view is that we have lacked these requirements in this country for far too long now. These measures are merely demonstrating good custodianship of the country and are long overdue.

    Folk complain about shoddy work done by non-UK workers who don't know nor follow the wring regulations, and not being able to compete on price.

    Now that we are actually dong something about it, they are moaning again about the forthcoming lack of 'free movement'.

    You cannot have it both ways.
