View answerTusla has no plans to hire, on a permanent basis, staff currently employed on the organisation’s behalf through an agency.
Tusla is currently recruiting social workers and other staff through normal recruitment channels and agency workers assigned to Tusla are eligible to apply for such positions, where suitably qualified. Tusla should be contacted directly by any agency worker interested in such positions for further information and qualifying conditions.
