Good morning, Joe.

Yeah, great phrase.

So effectively, what we're seeing is we are seeing Irish workers becoming a little bit more cautious as the market becomes that bit more competitive.

So companies effectively are advertising slightly fewer roles and then as a result,

What we're seeing is workers choosing to stay put in their current jobs rather than to compete in a tighter market.

Yeah, that's what we're seeing.

So, I mean, great news from an Irish perspective.

We continue to lead in Europe on flexible work.

So almost four out of every 10 job postings that we see are hybrid.

And that is the joint highest with the UK across EMEA.

And then on top of that, we actually see over 8% of all jobs advertised are fully remote.

And again, like second only and only marginally to the UK.

So, and we do see those roles attracting higher levels of interest.

So that indicates for us their popularity.

People enjoy the flexibility that that provides.

We do.

Yeah, we're seeing that demand continue to increase.

So this is no longer as niche an area as maybe it would have been in the past.

And we're seeing people in the green skills space being hired well above the global average.

And I would say the growth in that demand is being driven by multiple things.
