The centre on Cork Street is an amalgamation of a number of social welfare and community welfare offices in Dublin 2, 4 and 8. It is a one-stop shop where, for the first time, jobseekers living in these areas can access income and employment supports in one place.
The new integrated reception is the first port of call for all customers to receive information on all services provided by the Department. In addition, Cork Street Intreo Centre oversees a range of other supports for jobseekers living in the area, including Tús, JobBridge, the National Internship Scheme as well as the Back to Education and Back to Work schemes.

Cork Street Intreo Centre has two new Public Service Card stations at which staff process up to 170 registrations per week. Customers are invited to attend, by appointment, to register for their Public Service Card at this new office. The Public Services Card is designed to replace other cards within the public sector such as the Free Travel Pass. It has key security features including a photograph and signature which minimise the potential for identity theft, forgery and fraudulent use.
