'AMLÉ' (Aontas na Mac Léinn in Éirinn) is the new name for the Union of Students in Ireland. It's a direct translation.

We have developed a SIPTU-AMLÉ partnership and we launched it publicly at the SIPTU conference.

 

This agreement provides for joint actions, mutual support, and the further development of our relationship into the future. Some of the benefits include;

  • We will work on join initiatives and research which you can see some mentioned below.
  • AMLÉ members and officers get appropriate information, advice and consultation in respect of any workplace difficulty the member encounters through the SIPTU Workers Rights Centre.
  • The SIPTU Young Workers Network will be open to AMLÉ members and officers.
  • SIPTU membership benefits (car insurance, discounts etc.) will be extended to AMLÉ members. 
  • A Students’ Rights at Work; campaign will be ran by AMLÉ and SIPTU annually.
