Celebrating Years of Service

Staff recognised at long-standing service awards

IRD Duhallow, DCFS and the staff of the James O’Keeffe Foundation were celebrated for their years of service at the recent Board of Directors Christmas Dinner. In a time where Ireland’s work force has become more fluid and transient, Chairman of IRD Duhallow Michael Twohig noted that it was great testament to the companies

be celebrating up to 30 years of service for some individuals. He also noted how important companies such as IRD Duhallow and the many social enterprises operated within its structures are as employers within the local, rural economy.
