Dear Member,   

In this week's e-zine, we advise on employing young persons over the summer months and we bring you highlights from the SFA Annual Conference.

Each week in the SFA e-zine, we will profile a different government support available to small businesses, in this edition we focus on EURES, the European Job Mobility Portal which provides support for employers looking to recruit job seekers from other European countries.

We link to the BOI Economic Pulse from May 2017 and a business update from Irish Water.

Register for the next SFA webinar on 7 June on managing the retirement process. View details of upcoming events in June on making social media work for you on 9 June and E3 Dublin taking place on 29 June.

Plan your training calendar with our upcoming training courses. We also provide a summary of recent press coverage. 

As always, we’d love to hear from you about any queries you may have, issues you wish to have raised with Government or other stakeholders and your ideas on how we can improve the business environment for us all. Please contact me on tel: 01 605 1626 or e-mail: linda.barry@sfa.ie or tweet: @SFA_Irl or visit: www.sfa.ie.

Kind regards, 

Linda Barry

SFA Acting Director
