The IPU would like to hear from pharmacists and pharmacy owners or employers who would like to be considered for membership to a new Employee Employer Forum. This is open to both members and non-members of the IPU.
The Forum is being established to advance the following recommendation from the PSI Workforce Intelligence Report: “Establish a dedicated forum for pharmacist employers and employees with a time-bound scope and terms of reference, with a view to proposing and communicating best practice in relation to working conditions that must be addressed to ensure a sustainable community pharmacist workforce into the future.”
The forum will focus on discussing challenges and solutions for community pharmacy workforce sustainability and will be independently chaired by pharmacist and CEO of Dublin Chamber, Mary Rose Burke. The forum will comprise equal representation from employee pharmacists and employer/pharmacy owners and will meet quarterly. Those interested can apply online.
