Figures are historical issued-permit records showing past activity only. They do not prove current hiring, future sponsorship, role eligibility, or approval.
Based on official Department of Enterprise, Tourism and Employment (DETE) employment permit data for August 2025. Monthly employer and sector figures use the corresponding DETE month column.
DETE may revise prior-month counts in subsequent publications. Previous monthly snapshots on IrishTalents used the earlier figure. Legal entity names in DETE files may differ from consumer-facing brand names.
