Organisations like the Vintner's Association of Ireland are protesting issues such as minimum wage increases.
Hospitality workers will be marching outside of Leinster House today over costs and a lack of supports.
The Restaurants Association of Ireland, the Vintner's Federation of Ireland and representatives of other small businesses will be protesting the introduction of the pension auto-enrollment scheme, increases to the Minimum Wage and paid statutory sick days.
According to a report from the Department of Employment, the payroll cost of small hospitality businesses will see a rise of over 30 percent.
President of the VFI, and owner of Giltraps pub in Kinnity, John Clendennen, says while the Government has offered supports, their members say these don't go far enough:
Protestors will be outside Leinster House from 2pm - 4pm this afternoon.
