20,000 Jobs To Be Created By Ireland SMEs In 2013

29 Dec 2012

As per latest prediction, small and medium businesses in Ireland will generate 20,000 jobs in 2013.

"Ireland’s small business sector is deeply embedded in the Irish economy; it is now time to put jobs and small business at the centre of everything.

"With the right environment small businesses in Ireland will generate 20,000 jobs in 2013.

"This needs to be reflected in the measures to support SMEs," he said. "However, if both Government and agencies are forthright in their ambition to create jobs then they must do everything to reduce the cost of employment in 2013.

"When employment costs rise small firms are less likely to take on new staff. The small business sector is the engine of the economy and it is vital that Government does not undermine its ability to drive growth and create jobs."

"Government measures taken since 2010 have already added over €660m per annum to labour costs, through employer PRSI changes, pensions levy and most recently the changes to the redundancy rebate.

"In 2013, we must place small businesses at the heart of economic policy. Small businesses are the drivers of innovation," he said.
