Kerry SIPTU members in the HSE home support service have voted in favour of strike action.
It’s in relation to a dispute between health care assistants (HCAs) and their employers around national agreements on terms and conditions.
A SIPTU ballot counted at Liberty Hall Dublin on Monday evening delivered a 95% mandate for industrial action – up to and including strike action.

The trade union says its HSE home support strike committee will meet shortly to set dates for industrial action.
A spokesperson states the unresolved issues include underpayments dating back to 2018, and the non-implementation of rostering agreements.
