EU data shows Covid-19 has hit ordinary workers incomes hardest - Louise O'Reilly TD

Sinn Féin spokesperson on Enterprise, Trade, Employment, and Workers’ Rights, Louise O’Reilly TD, has said the latest data from the European Commission, which shows that low wage earners saw their income hit hardest by Covid-19, has shone a light on Ireland’s unequal economy.
Teachta O’Reilly said:
“The pandemic has ripped through our society and economy, but new data from the Eurostat, the European Commission’s statistical division, has highlighted the income disparity that exists in Ireland, and how ordinary workers have suffered the most from Covid-19.
“The EU data has outlined how low wage workers have suffered staggering income drops due to the pandemic, with an average drop of 10% this year. These ordinary workers have suffered an income reduction twice as large as high income earners.
