Irish work culture is personable and relationship-oriented. Communication is friendly and often indirect. Work-life balance is valued. Remote work has been widely adopted, and Ireland introduced a legal right to request remote work in 2023.
Employment law provides strong protections including unfair dismissal rules. Contractors must carefully manage their status to avoid deemed employment. Revenue (tax authority) scrutinizes contractor arrangements. International employers commonly use EOR services.
