Note: all staff assigned to HSE National Ambulance Service who are party to the provisions under the terms of the Public Service agreement are entitled to compensation for actual losses. This is to include non-rostered staff, ICO’s, clerical admin, any trades people assigned to service and managers.
Dear Member
I refer to recent correspondence to you regarding your entitlement to compensation under the terms of the Public Service agreement 2010 - 2014. In this regard the calculation should reflect the terms of the PSA agreement in that all losses are to be compensated for at 1.5 times the actual loss.
It is our view that following the terms of the PSA agreement and the subsequent Labour Court Recommendations regarding the agreement and the precedent of the settlement of the compensation payment agreed between the HSE and our members in Dundrum Central Mental Hospital that the following agreed principles should apply in your case.
The reverse effect of the change to the following
1: Overtime rate for Sundays
2: Overtime rate for Public holidays
3: Overtime rate for time x 2
4: Overtime rate for time x 1.5
5: Overtime rate from 1.5 to 1.25
6: First hour of overtime in week given free x 52
7: Overtime by 2 rostered lost due to change
8: Pay cut of 7.5% x 1.5 times the loss
9: All losses noted in LCR 20313 not noted above x 1.5 times the actual loss.

NASRA , the National Ambulance Service Representative Association said today (Wednesday, 18 th May ) that the findings of a HSE review of the National Ambulance Service must be acted on urgently in order to avoid further tragedy as a result of lack of investment and the inability of ambulances to respond adequately to emergency incidents.
Commenting on the publication the National Ambulance Service of Ireland's Emergency Service Baseline and Capacity Review, NASRA National Chairman, Michael Dixon said ; ‘We have seen a number of adverse incidents in recent years that have resulted from lack of investment in the National Ambulance Service and the HSE insistence on defending response times that have now been shown to be completely unrealistic'.
